Recovery session with one eye on Girona
The blaugranes trained on Wednesday as preparations begin for Saturday's game in Montilivi against their fellow Catalans
FC Barcelona returned to work on Wednesday after the big 6-1 win over Eibar. All the first team players available plus Barça B players Jokin Ezkieta, Cucurella, Vitinho, R. De Galarreta, Aleñá, José Arnaiz and Choco Lozano took part in the session. Those who started against Eibar at Camp Nou on Tuesday did recovery work whilst the Spanish Agency for the Protection of Health in Sport carried out anti-doping tests on Piqué, Sergio, Iniesta, Messi, Mascherano and Jordi Alba.
The training session at the Tito Vilanova field allowed Ernesto Valverde's team to begin preparations for Saturday's trip to Girona (8.45pm CET), the first meeting ever between the two Catalan clubs in the league.
