Recovery training in the morning

The Al-Sadd football team continued with its training schedule in Munich on Wednesday morning from 10:30 after reaching the German city on Tuesday night.

The delegation had left for Germany right after the 0-1 defeat to Ufa FC in a preseason friendly, as per the schedule which will see the team continue to train in Munich before traveling to Doha on 30th July.

The coaching staff ensured that the players who had played for an hour during the match against Ufa, underwent recovery training to get rid of the fatigue. This included walking and light running exercises, in addition to movement exercises inside the gym at the Dolce Hotel.

The rest of the players had more active training, running longer distances and at faster speeds. They also went through muscle strengthening exercises at the gym.

The management gave the players a break and as such there will no be no training on Wednesday evening.

The team is now scheduled to return to training in two sessions on Thursday, in preparation for the second friendly game, which will be the last for departing for Doha.
