Recuperation thinking about the Champions

Sandra Sarmiento/Anna Segura

The first team players have trained this Sunday morning in the ‘Masia’ training ground. Those who played yesterday had a lighter recovery session, while the rest prepared for the next game on Tuesday against Celtic.

After suffering the first loss of 2008, the blue and reds have to turn the page as quickly as possible. Now it’s time for the Champions League, with the return leg against Glasgow Celtic.

Post-game session.

As is usual the blue and reds that played in the first eleven have had a lighter recovery session. Zambrotta and Henry were the first to abandon the training field. Milito, Eto’o, Puyol and Abidal carried on sprint training and the others practiced one touch control.

Present at the training session were Bojan and Touré, absent from the squad against Atletico Madrid. On the other hand, Victor Valdés didn’t leave the gym and continued training inside.

Six players from the youth squad.

The selectors have called up five players from the B-team and one from the youth team to training. They are Fali, Victor Vazquez, Victor Sanchez, Marc Valiente and the goalkeeper Dani Plancheria, all five from the B-team, and the youth Ilie.

The first team players gradually disappeared from the turf at the ‘Masia’. The preparatory session continued for the other blue and reds, who carried on doing circuit training and a kick around to end the training session.
