Good spirits and the ball rolling

TRAINING SESSION

Benfica's professional football team trained this Sunday, June 22, at Waters Sportsplex in Tampa, Florida, preparing for their third game in the Club World Cup. Before the training session, the first 15 minutes of which were open to the media, Prestianni spoke to the press.

Despite the unstable weather in the region, with high temperatures and occasional thunderstorms and rain, especially at the end of the day, Bruno Lage's team continued their preparations for Tuesday's match against Bayern Munich in intense heat, with temperatures reaching 31 degrees.

On Sunday, June 22, at Waters Sportsplex, during the media open session, everyone present was in good spirits, with the ball constantly rolling on the pitch. Earlier, Prestianni addressed the team's expectations for their next match in the competition in statements to the press.

Florentino underwent treatment and gym work due to an acromioclavicular sprain in his right shoulder. For the match against the German champions, Bruno Lage will be without Álvaro Carreras and Belotti, who are both suspended: the Spanish left-back picked up two yellow cards, while the Italian international striker had his two-match ban confirmed for his sending off against Boca Juniors.

On Monday, June 23, the Eagles will return to work in the morning in Tampa. However, the preview of the next game will take place in the late afternoon in Charlotte, North Carolina, specifically at Bank of America Stadium.

Benfica faces Bayern Munich on Tuesday, June 24, at 8:00 pm in mainland Portugal (3:00 pm local time), in the third match of Group C.
