A regular football session
Friday evening’s training session consisted mainly of ball exercises, practicing the principles of the game, as the coaching staff wants them implemented during the encounters.
Good and fast circulation under pressure, accurate and fast options to attack, immediate pressing after relinquishing possession –and all that in reduced space… There were the non-stop instructions of the coaching staff, so that players would work on their physical condition in high intensity situations.
The players missing from the evening session were Dimitris Konstantinidis (light jogging), Sotiris Papagiannopoulos (viral infection), Eyal Golasa and Lucas Pérez (on a leave of absence). International players are scheduled to return to work on 4 July, except for Christian Noboa who will be back on 8 July.
PAOK are scheduled to train twice on Saturday (at 10.00 and 18.00). Between sessions, players will rest at a New Mesimvria hotel.
