One day after their arrival in Holland, Olympiacos’s players had today their first training session at the F.C. Horst stadium. The program was intense and the weather and temperature helped a lot to a good training.
The F.C. Horst stadium is located in the Ermelo area, about 10-15 minutes away from the hotel that the team is currently staying at. The stadium is used by F.C. Horst, which works as an academy to Feyenoord.
At 9:30 in the morning the players started their training, with a variety of exercises. They ran, with or without the ball and did some stretching exercises. Following that, the players were divided into groups, working on their technic and their physical condition. Right after that, they worked on finishing the chances they created, with the help of our team’s goalkeepers.
Later on, were divided into two teams and played a training match, with a lot of intensity and many great chances, proving that they all are in a very good condition. Megyeri, Torossidis, Manolas, Siovas, Cholevas, Fejsa, Tatos, Maniatis, Abdoun, Fetfatzidis and Mitroglou were the team “blue”. Carroll, Zaradoukas, Dielna, Papazoglou, Karagounis, Modesto, Chumbinho, Lykogiannis, Vlachodimos, Djebbour and Pantelic were the team “red”.
In the meantime, Diogo worked on finishing goal opportunities and then “traded” places with Marko Pantelic. Vlachodimos had a great attempt at Megyeri’s left post, and Tatos “replied” with an amazing goal, on the top left corner of Carroll’s goalpost. Mitroglou had then another shot at the bar!
Kevin Mirallas, Leandro Greco and Ariel Ibagaza stayed at the hotel gym and did their own training program. This afternoon’s training session is scheduled for 17:30 local time (18:30 Greece time).
