Asia-Pacific Tour | Galleries - Saturday's training sessions in Bangkok

After a final session in Perth and eight-hour flight to Thailand on Friday, the players were straight back onto the training pitch in Bangkok on Saturday morning, local time.

This was a short, sharp session at the STB Football Academy as morning temperatures hit 85 degrees by 10.30am! After pre-activation exercises, the emphasis was on ball work and the session ended with a finishing drill. The players then quickly headed for the ice bath!

After a taste of Thai culture for a number of players in the afternoon, the squad returned to the hard work of pre-season with our popular Open Training session at the Rajamangala National Stadium on Saturday evening, local time.

Fans flocked to Thailand's national stadium for the chance to watch Ange Postecoglou and his coaching team put the players through their paces in pouring rain - but the weather didn't put a dampener on proceedings as the squad trained for 90 minutes before meeting supporters lucky enough to have a 'Golden Ticket' for a signing session immediately after training.
