Just one day before the Legend’s opening ICC fixture against Milan, Olympiacos had its first training on Canadian soil at Toronto FC’s training ground! At 19:00 (local time), our squad arrived at the KIA Training Ground, our players put on their training kits and rushed to the pitch.
They started with body control exercises, sprints and zig-zags and then were engaged in passing drills, with short and long balls. Then, they were divided in two groups, one attacking and the other in defense. Energy in the team has been even more enhanced following the return of Olympiacos internationals and now the chemistry between young and old players becomes even better!
Before the end of the training session, the squad played an 11-on-11 game, between the blue team and the yellow team, which was really lively. What stood out was one of Chori’s magical moves, who launched a great square ball after dribbling past a couple of defenders.
The session was attended by Olympiacos fans who visited the training ground! They actually hung a flag and went on signing, and thus made the players feel like home!
