A diferen�a de 12 horas com rela��o ao hor�rio brasileiro vem tirando o sono da delega��o brasileira nestes primeiros dias na capital japonesa.

Dormir na hora correta n�o � tarefa das mais simples para o time brasileiro. No primeiro treino, realizado na tarde desta QUINTA-FEIRA (11.07), foi preciso muita disposi��o para superar o cansa�o e o sono. As brasileiras treinaram das 12h �s 2h da tarde, o que no Brasil significaria treinar durante a madrugada.
Em fase de adapta��o, o t�cnico Marco Aur�lio Motta d� a dica para vencer a diferen�a de hor�rio e orienta as suas jogadoras. �O fuso afeta todas as sele��es. Em nossa situa��o s�o 12 horas de diferen�a. Por isso, precisamos de mais tempo nos adaptar. Mas o segredo � ter disciplina. Falo para todas que � preciso lutar contra o sono e dormir na hora certa. Os quatro primeiros dias s�o os mais complicados. Mesmo assim, aos poucos, vamos entrar no ritmo. Sab�amos que �amos enfrentar este problema e, por isso, treinamos forte na �ltima semana no Rio para que os primeiros treinos aqui fossem mais tranq�ilos�, diz Marco, que tamb�m est� sofrendo para se adaptar. �Nesta noite (de quarta-feira para quinta-feira), fui dormir �s 20h e acordei �s 3h da madrugada. Depois, perdi o sono e n�o consegui dormir mais�, completa.

Para a oposto Luciana, o cansa�o na primeira noite foi tanto que a fez superar a ins�nia. �Estava muito cansada. Acordei durante a madrugada, mas voltei a dormir. Tem horas do dia que d� uma vontade de dormir muito grande e, quando temos que deitar, perdemos o sono�, fala a jogadora, que sabe que a dificuldade � passageira. �Nada como um dia ap�s o outro. Espero que consigamos nos adaptar o quanto antes�, finaliza.
