Atletico Madrid fell to a humiliating 4-0 Champions League defeat at Benfica on Wednesday.
Diego Simeone's side were thoroughly outplayed and outfought in Lisbon and the Portuguese side triumphed emphatically to record a second win in two matches in the competition.
Bruno Lage's team went ahead through Kerem Aturkoglu's 13th minute strike, with former Real Madrid winger Angel Di Maria extending the lead from the penalty spot early in the second half.
Alexander Bah headed home the third from a corner in the 75th minute and Orkun Kokcu completed the rout with another penalty late on.
