Overview

• Atlético raced to a 3–0 halftime lead through Giacomo Raspadori (4'), Robin Le Normand (33') and Antoine Griezmann (45+1').
• Jonathan Burkardt cut the deficit on 57 minutes, but Giuliano Simeone (70') and Julián Álvarez from the spot (82') closed out a commanding win.
• Frankfurt’s notably young starting XI, averaging about 24.1 years, struggled to cope with the hosts’ intensity and organization.
• The match unfolded in a sold‑out Metropolitano in Madrid as Atlético extended a formidable home run, with German teams winless there for 29 years.
• Despite the setback, Frankfurt stays on three points after two group matches and now turns to a Bundesliga test against Bayern Munich on Saturday.
