Ronaldinho trains in front of La Masía

Marc Guillén

Ronaldinho continued on the road to recovery on Wednesday morning as he trained on the pitch in front of La Masia under the watchful eye of a fitness coach.

Following a similar routine to the one that he carried on Tuesday , the Brazilian superstar went through his daily programme on his own, but always with a coach standing by to see how he is progressing as he looks to shake off the calf injury that kept him out of action at the weekend. After an easy warm-up session, Ronaldinho carried out different exercises with the ball before the pace was stepped up as the session continued. He finished by doing runs at varying pace and then took shots at goal.

Gudjohnsen and Puyol

Eidur Gudjohnsen and Carles Puyol also went out to the training pitch, but with different aims in mind. The pair went through different physical circuits with the ball, all of which ended with a shot at goal. Gudjohnsen has been omitted from the squad to face Real Zaragoza for technical reasons, while Puyol is in the final stages of his recovery from injury.
