Thursday recovery session

The FC Barcelona squad were back at the Ciutat Esportiva on Thursday morning, where the mood was understandably despondent after going out of the Copa del Rey following a 4-0 defeat at home to Real Madrid the night before. That's one trophy that Barça can no longer opt for, but things are still more than on track in La Liga, and that's where the focus will be 100 per cent from now on.

Next up is a local derby against Girona at Spotify Camp Nou on Easter Monday.

Today's session involved analysis of what went wrong against Madrid, including the usual post-game recovery routine, as well as the first preparations for the next fixture.

The Tito Vilanova field was the venue, where the first team regulars were joined by Casadó, Arnau Casas and Estanis of Barça Atlètic, and Garrido and Alarcón of the U19A side.
