The Miners continue their preparations for the upcoming season

Sunday, July 5, proved a demanding test for the Shakhtar players as Arda Turan's men completed three training sessions during the day.

The Orange-and-Blacks were out on the pitch as early as 7:15. The morning session lasted an hour and included a warm-up, exercises without the ball, the customary rondo, various drills and ball work.

At 11:00, the team gathered in the gym, where the players completed a full-body workout in two groups under the guidance of the fitness coaches.

The evening session got under way at 18:00 on the pitch and had an entirely game-based focus. The coaching staff gave the lads a range of combination and game-related tasks, with the main part devoted to games between different line-ups. The demanding session lasted around two hours in total.

It is worth noting that Ukraine national team head coach Andrea Maldera and his assistants Taras Stepanenko and Pasquale Catalano paid a visit to Shakhtar at today's training session.
