FK "Kauno Žalgirio" players have already played their first friendly match with "Zhenis" from Kazakhstan during their training camp in Turkey, and now they continue to sweat it out in training.

The Kaunas team arrived in Antalya on Thursday, and by Friday they were already hard at work. The daily schedule for Žalgiris usually includes two training sessions a day, including work in the gym.

"We are working hard. We have two training sessions, a lot of work in the gym, and we run a lot. We also changed the pitch from artificial turf to natural grass. After such training, we have to get used to the ball again," said team defender Anton Tolordava after the first friendly match.

A. Tolordava also stated that all these conditions greatly help the team prepare as best as possible for the upcoming season's battles.

"The conditions are excellent, we have everything we need to prepare well. Step by step, we will regain the form we had last year. Perhaps even better," assured the Georgian.

On the FK "Kauno Žalgirio" YouTube channel, you can already find a video that shows what the Lithuanian champions' training looks like up close in Turkey and what the players and coaches are saying.
