Luis Enrique debates with Gayà and gives love to Thiago

The National Team trained today at the Pretovsky Stadium for 75 minutes. Before starting the session, Luis Enrique gave a talk to the players that was longer than usual, It lasted for about five minutes.

When the talk was over, he went with Gayà and was talking with him about match situations, for the gestures made by the coach and the Valencia side. It was a lively debate that ended with a carantoña from the coach to Gayà. Later, Luis Enrique went to look for Thiago Alcantará and gave him a gesture of encouragement.

After making two rounds, Luis Enrique handed out bibs to first do an exercise in confined spaces. He gave green bib to three wild cards, which were Laporte, Busquets and Morata. The other day when he did that he gave it to Gerard Moreno instead of Morata, but it did not mean anything in the face of the starting eleven.

The rest of the session was behind closed doors (the journalists were able to watch 20 minutes) and the alternates had a greater workload. They played a double area with a shower of shots and goals. The atmosphere was magnificent and the pitch at the Petrovsky Stadium was in perfect condition.

This Thursday's official training session is also held at the old Zenit stadium, but Friday's game against Switzerland is played at the San Petersburg Stadium, Zenit's current field, which has not been used to preserve its grass.
