    Pics of Barcelona Training Tonight at Toyota Park, Home of the Chicago Red Stars

    Tonight we hosted a quaint and friendly group in the Chicago Red Stars suite for the FC Barcelona training session at Toyota Park. Barcelona was preparing to play Chivas Guadalajara on Sunday at Soldier Field.

    It was a pretty low-key session to start - jogging, dynamic stretching, 5v2 in a small area (by the fans so we could get a good glimpse. I may have been starting at Thierry Henry for some time). Then they opened the session up with half field 8v6 while the keepers trained crossed balls at the opposite end. Finally, they brought the goals in and ended with 9v9.
