Tactical session ahead of El Riazor
Atletico Madrid returned to the morning session at Cerro del Espino after the trip to Azerbaijan. Simeone worked intensely focused on Saturday's game against Deportivo la Coruna at the Riazor.
The group led by Diego Pablo Simeone trained this morning with their mind on the three points in Saturday's match against Deportivo La Coruna. The Argentine coach and his coaching staff had the full squad plus Óliver, Saul and Manquillo, with Diego Costa the only absentee. The Brazilian was booked against Real Madrid and will be sidelined for this match so he trained alone in the gym as a precaution after taking a blow on the left knee in the match played in Azerbaijan.
The good news is the continuity of Arda Turan with the group. The Turk trained yesterday with his teammates for the first time after his ankle injury and has become a part of training showing good signs ahead of Saturday.
The session, which lasted an hour and fifteen minutes, began with exercises on mats working on flexibility and strength. Then the players exercised in a physical circuit prepared by Oscar Ortega. Diego Pablo Simeone decided to close the session behind closed doors working on strategy for Saturday.
