Bad weather was the main element in Friday’s evening training session at Nea Mesimvria.

Rain was incessant and the pitch was heavy, but PAOK players and their coach Giorgos Georgiadis carried on with their training program. They started with decompression games with ball and then worked on their tactics against an organized defence and on their collective defence.

Dimitris Papadopoulos followed part of the session due to fatigue, while Achilleas Pouggouras was absent due to a viral infection. Hedwiges Maduro and Ricardo Costa continued their strengthening program in the gym.
