The weather was sunny and very hot and humid. In the morning, from 9:30 AM, we loosened up our bodies with walks and exercises within the facility. After lunch, training began at 4:30 PM at the match venue. The natural grass pitch was in excellent condition.

During training, after running, we did coordination and agility drills, followed by ball work like passing combinations, one-on-one play, and a game-format practice (10 vs 10).
