Liverpool's setback, Atlético, Bayern and Madrid thrashings: This is how Tuesday's matchday went

Matchday 2 of the UEFA Champions League began this Tuesday with eight matches that resulted in eight victories and only one draw. Real Madrid's thrashing of Kairat in Kazakhstan (0-5) was the biggest result of a day in which 33 goals were scored. Atlético de Madrid and Bayern Munich also obtained 'little hands' against Eintracht Frankfurt (5-1) and Pafos (1-5), respectively.

Xabi Alonso's team began Matchday 2 with a comfortable thrashing against debutant Kairat. Kylian Mbappé scored a 'hat trick', while Eduardo Camavinga and Brahim Díaz closed a result that was too bulky for a Kazakh team that managed to make 11 shots, 4 of them on goal.

Bayern and Atlético thrash, Liverpool deflates

At the Metropolitano, Atlético continued the party after the beating of Real in the Madrid derby with another 'little hand'. This time, the victim was Frankfurt, who fell by the same result with which they had defeated Galatasaray in Matchday 1. Raspadori opened the scoring in the 4th minute, while Le Normand and Griezmann left the match resolved before the break.

Burkardt discounted for the Germans, but Gio Simeone and Julián Álvarez, from a penalty, closed the 'rojiblanca' beating. Curiously, Galatasaray, who in their debut were thrashed in Frankfurt (5-1), recovered with a victory by the minimum against a Liverpool that continues without taking off despite their 'galactic' signings.

Arne Slot's team fell in Istanbul due to a penalty by Victor Osimhen in the 16th minute (1-0) and have two defeats in a row (one in the Premier League). Bayern, on the other hand, did their homework by thrashing Pafos with goals from Harry Kane (double), Rafa Guerreiro, Nico Jackson and Michael Olise. The Bavarians, for the moment, lead the general classification with 6 points and +6 in goal difference.
