Recuperation work
Monday’s double training, combined with the two friendly encounters against PAS Giannina and Lamia took their toll on PAOK players, who enjoyed a low intensity session on Thursday, focused on decompression and recuperation.
The players split into two groups. Those who played against Lamia remained in the gym and the pool for a recuperation program. The rest stepped out on the pitch, did warm-up work with stability drills, played the classic “monkey in the middle” and then engaged in 5v5 games against mini goals.
Marin Leovac, José Ángel Crespo and Diego Biseswar did jogging and then worked separately from the team-mates. They will do the same on Friday, in order to recover from their minor injuries. Dorian Lévêque is training at a higher pace now and is expected to return gradually to normal training rhythm. As for José Alberto Cañas, he did laps in the pool and is working against time to be ready for the first leg against Östersunds FK.
There is a double training scheduled for Friday (at 09:30 and 19:30) in Nea Mesimvria.
