Technical Work In The Afternoon


Third day of repeats for Juventus: this morning the bianconeri underwent six repeats, always on a distance of 1,200 metres. The aerobic strengthening work is important to fill the tanks with petrol in view of a long and busy season.

Before the athletic part, the bianconeri worked on technical and tactical aspects with the midfielders working with Sormani on ball possession and circulation while the attackers and the defenders worked with Ferrara and Maddaloni on movement during non-possession and re-starting.

Momo Sissoko worked in the gym as scheduled and was later joined by Alessandro Del Piero who did not take part in the repeats but underwent a personalized training programme.

In the afternoon, after the press conference by Ciro Ferrara, the team returned on the field for the second session of the day. The bianconeri first worked in the gym were Diego and Sissoko remained for the rest of the session while the others descended on the field to the joy of the public who like in the past few days filled the stands of the Centro Sportivo Pineta. T

he players were busy in a series of mini-matches divided into sections, first on half the field and then on three-quarters: a task aimed at practicing one-on-one football but also at confronting situations of numerical inferiority or superiority.

On Wednesday the team will play its first seasonal friendly against Cisco Roma (live on Juventus Channel) but the bianconeri will still train in the morning starting at 10:00hrs.
