Back to work

Berta Brau/Anna Segura

The first team got back to work after taking a holiday on Thursday. Milito is over his fever, but Touré had to leave the training session at La Masia before the end.

Frank Rijkaard’s side are now working on Sunday’s home fixture against Villarreal (21.00). 19 players took part in training at Masia, including Gaby Milito. The Argentinian defender trained normally after missing the Champions League game with Celtic due to a fever.

Touré off early

After warm-ups and drills, Touré Yaya left La Masia, while the other players practiced passing in pairs. They then divided into two groups to work on circuits involving one-twos and shots on goal.

Game to end

The physical bit over, the players then enjoyed a game. In orange there were Edmílson, Gudjohnsen, Bojan, Thuram, Iniesta, Abidal, Zambrotta and Eto'o, who faced the bib-less Milito, Giovani, Ronaldinho, Deco, Xavi, Sylvinho, Puyol and Henry. The bib-less team won 3-1.
