The Dutchman Memphis Depay started the gala on his debut with a brace (23rd, 26th). After the interim goal from Youssef En-Nesyri (39′), Antoine Griezmann (53′), Yannick Carrasco (69′) and twice Alvaro Morata (76′, 90’+2) ensured clear conditions after the break.
The peat festival was also the fitting gift for coach Diego Simeone. The Argentine made his 613th touchline for Atletico, setting the club’s record.
