Fitness and defensive tactics
The countdown to the derby continues, the PAOK squad are preparing for the tough battle in Athens, the internationals and the injured are returning slowly but surely, and Razvan Lucescu is making his masterplan ahead of AEK.
The session started with the necessary warm-up and then the players were divided into teams and played out some high-intensity 3 Vs 2 and 4 Vs 3 games. The last part of the training session was devoted to the field of tactics, with an emphasis on the team’s defensive play.
Baba, Dominic Kotarski, Jonny Otto, Brandon Thomas and Andrija Zivkovic trained regularly with the team. Shola Shoretire and Giannis Konstantelias were left out due to viral infections, while Antonis Tsiftsis did an individual workout out on the training pitch.
PAOK will train on Thursday (17.10) at 17:00.
