Sometimes when you watch a soccer game, it's easy to forget all the hard work that the players put in to get to where they are. Soccer players work as hard as any other athletes, as far as team sports are concerned and it never ceases to amaze me the amount of running and work they put in.
After Chivas USA had gone through a lively short-sided game, the club went through these nifty drills. Keep in mind, they're tired already.
They were split up into two groups and one started off, ran to some near cones, pivoted, turned, ran back to the start, pivoted, turned, ran to some further cones, pivoted, turned and over and over and over. Once done, the other team started the process all over again.
They went through this drill several times and by the end, the players were gassed. For half the team, it was off to yoga. For others, there was work in the gym to be done.
