Has PSG ever played Atlético Madrid?
Yes — but only twice in competitive fixtures. The two clubs have faced each other in the Champions League and the Club World Cup, making their head-to-head record relatively short but significant.
Head-to-Head Record
Across their two meetings, the record stands perfectly balanced: PSG has one win, Atlético Madrid has one win, and there have been no draws (FootyStats H2H data). Total goals scored: 4 for PSG, 4 for Atlético.
Previous Match Results
In the 2024-25 Champions League league phase, Atlético Madrid came out on top with a 2-1 victory over PSG. Warren Zaire-Emery scored for PSG (14′), while Nahuel Molina and Angel Correa found the net for Atlético (Sports Mole H2H history). The pattern was simple: whoever hosted had won.
The implication: that trend ended at the Rose Bowl, where PSG won comfortably as the away side in a neutral venue.
Who scored for PSG vs Atlético?
PSG’s scoring in the 4-0 win was spread across the match, with goals arriving before and after halftime as the French side dominated from start to finish.
Goal Scorers in 4-0 Win
The goal table below details each scorer and their assist provider from the Club World Cup match.
| Player | Minute | Assisted By |
|---|---|---|
| Fabián Ruiz | 19′ | Khvicha Kvaratskhelia |
| Vitinha | 45+1′ | Khvicha Kvaratskhelia |
| Senny Mayulu | 87′ | Ibrahim Mbaye |
| Lee Kang-in | 90+7′ pen | N/A (penalty) |
- Fabián Ruiz — 19′ (assisted by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia)
- Vitinha — 45+1′ (assisted by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia)
- Senny Mayulu — 87′ (assisted by Ibrahim Mbaye)
- Lee Kang-in — 90+7′ pen
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia was instrumental in the first two goals, providing assists for both Fabián Ruiz and Vitinha before halftime (365Scores match timeline).
Penalty Conversion
Lee Kang-in converted from the spot in stoppage time, coolly slotting home the fourth goal from 12 yards. The penalty came late in added time, capping a comprehensive performance (ESPN detailed match report).
What this means: PSG’s goals came from four different scorers, showing their attacking depth rather than reliance on a single striker.
PSG’s four-goal tally came from players aged 19 to 25 — Mayulu (19), Lee Kang-in (23), Fabián Ruiz (24), Vitinha (25). That youth profile suggests the team is building toward long-term dominance, not just a single-tournament flash.
Is Atlético Madrid out of the Club World Cup?
Yes. After the 4-0 loss to PSG, Atlético Madrid’s Club World Cup campaign effectively ended in the group stage, with the result leaving them with no path to advancement.
Match Outcome Impact
Atlético Madrid dropped to 3rd position in Group B following the defeat. PSG, meanwhile, moved to the top of the group with 6 points from two wins and a loss (SoccerPunter group standings).
Tournament Standings
The loss, combined with the earlier red card to Clément Lenglet at 78 minutes, left Atlético playing with 10 men for the final 12 minutes of the match (Sky Sports match statistics). That numerical disadvantage compounded an already difficult situation against a PSG side that had dominated possession throughout.
The catch: Atlético’s elimination came despite winning their opening Club World Cup match, making the PSG loss a particularly steep fall from which recovery proved impossible.
Diego Simeone’s side finished the group stage with just one win from three matches — insufficient against a PSG team that looked every bit the tournament favorite from the opening whistle.
What was the PSG vs Atlético Madrid score?

Full Time Result
The final score read PSG 4–0 Atlético Madrid, with halftime seeing PSG ahead 2-0 (FootyStats H2H data). PSG’s victory was their first-ever success over Atlético Madrid in competitive football (Sports Mole H2H analysis).
Key Match Stats
The head-to-head stats table below reveals the extent of PSG’s dominance across all major metrics.
| Metric | PSG | Atlético Madrid |
|---|---|---|
| Possession | 74.4% | 25.6% |
| Total Shots | 16 | 5 |
| Shots on Target | 11 | 1 |
| Big Chances | 4 | 1 |
| Expected Goals (xG) | 2.02 | 0.89 |
| H2H Wins | 1 | 1 |
PSG dominated every metric: 74.4% possession vs Atlético’s 25.6%, 16 total shots vs 5, and 11 shots on target vs just 1 (ESPN match report). The xG numbers told a similar story — PSG’s 2.02 expected goals compared to Atlético’s 0.89 (FotMob advanced stats).
The pattern: PSG created more than twice as many big chances (4 vs Atlético’s 1), and the shot-on-target ratio reflected a clinical efficiency that Atlético simply could not match.
Champions League winners Paris Saint-Germain beat fellow European heavyweights Atlético Madrid 4-0 at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena on Sunday.
— ESPN Staff
PSG comfortably defeated Atlético de Madrid in baking-hot conditions at the Rose Bowl to begin their quadruple quest in fine fashion.
PSG sent out a warning sign after a brilliant 4-0 win over Atletico Madrid.
Has Atlético ever won a UCL?
No. Atlético Madrid has never won the UEFA Champions League, despite reaching the final twice — in 2014 and 2016 — both times losing to Real Madrid.
Atlético Madrid UCL History
Diego Simeone has guided Atlético to two Champions League finals, but on both occasions, Real Madrid proved insurmountable opponents. The closest Atlético ever came to European football’s top prize remains those narrow final defeats.
Diego Simeone’s Record
Simeone has spent over a decade building Atlético into Champions League contenders, but the trophy room remains conspicuously missing that particular trophy. His tenure has included La Liga titles (2013-14, 2020-21) and Europa League wins, but not the European crown that defines a managerial legacy.
Why this matters: The PSG result adds another data point to a recurring question — whether Atlético’s ceiling under Simeone is simply not high enough to compete with the continent’s elite over 90 minutes.
