Godín trains with the group but isn’t included in the roster against Hércules
Ujfalusi, out through suspension, while Diego Costa and Juanfran return
Atlético de Madrid held training on Saturday the day before facing Hércules, with Godin joining the group after having done an alternative session with Oscar Pitillas, the team physical trainer, while his teammates began the session with physical work under the orders of Jordi Garcia. However, Quique Sanchez Flores confirmed at his press conference that the Uruguayan center back will be unavailable for the match.
Pulido and Noguera, from Atlético B, took part with the first squad while Borja and Alberto Perea trained with the reserves. De Gea and Joel, as usual, did specific work with Emilio Álvarez, goalkeeping coach. Luis Perea, for his part, did alternative work with Oscar Pitillas to continue with his rehab process.
The team began with the habitual warm-up, then moved into 4v2s and physical work. Afterwards, they did some possession drills and finished with crosses and finishing. From that point, the practice continued behind closed doors.
The big novelty in the list is the return of Juanfran, who lost his father last Sunday and for this reason did not travel to Santander. Diego Costa, who was out against Racing due to accumulation of yellow cards, was also included in the matchday roster. Ujfalusi, through suspension for yellow cards, will miss this game.
The squad list is formed by the following 20 footballers:
GOALKEEPERS
13 De Gea.
27 Joel.
DEFENDERS
2 Valera.
3 Antonio López.
14 Filipe Luis.
