Training to the rhythm and … weather of Tripoli
There may have not been any shelf cloud action in Thessaloniki, but the rain and sunshine added to the melancholic mood which swept through the PAOK FC camp on Friday on the 20th anniversary of the tragic loss of six supporters in a road accident.
At a rain-soaked Toumba, PAOK continued to fine-tune the preparations for the difficult away match against Asteras in Tripoli. Abel Ferreira and his coaching staff worked mostly on the tactical approach of the match, as well as focusing on set-pieces.
The Portuguese coach had Miroslav Stoch back in training after the player overcame a virus he has been suffering which kept him out of Thursday’s (03.10) session. That means that the only player on the injured list is Pontus Wermbloom, who continued his challenging, individual recovery program.
Andre Vierinha completed the full session without any issues and is counting down the days until he can return to the first team after his ACL injury last April.
On Saturday (05.10) PAOK will train again at 10:15 at the Toumba, before departing later in the afternoon for Tripoli.
