Brazil’s first training session ahead of this year’s Copa America did not go quite as planned as two key players had to pull out.
Robinho trotted off the training ground early on with what appeared to be pain in his right thigh. The medical team did not seem too concerned but the 31 year old in now expected to be rested for the next two days.
Corinthians midfielder Elias did not even make the session as he was allowed to do some light physical work on his own. The 30 year old has been complaining of fatigue after a busy few months with his club and country and Dunga doesn’t want to push him too hard.
