A different training session, compared to those they are used to, awaited the players of our team in Latvia this morning. The program had neither training on the pitch nor the gym, but cycling. The intention of the coaching staff was to relieve the players a bit from the double training sessions of the week and cycling through the picturesque streets in Jurmala was the perfect way.
On the contrary, for the three international players (Montnor, Matysik and Moussounda) who were integrated into the squad on Thursday, the programme included training on the pitch with the aim of reaching the level of the rest of the squad as soon as possible.
After lunch, in the early afternoon, the players had the opportunity to test their skills in the "Escape Room" in the Latvian capital Riga, which is less than 30 kilometres away, from the team's base in Jurmala. Apart from the obvious purpose, which was to relax the players and change scenery, the game was about team bonding and strengthening the level of cooperation between them.
