31' CHANCE! Griezmann's shot wide out
Griezmann tries his luck at the other end with a driven shot on the half volley but it does not threaten Burki, who watches the attempt fly wide of his post.
38' GOAL! Dortmund 1-0 Atletico (Witsel)
Hakimi cuts inside from the right and tees a pass to Witsel on the edge of the area. He fires at goal and his attempt takes a huge deflection off Saul, leaving Oblak helpless.
Hakimi has been one of the best players so far in the match and his bursts forward down the flank have put Atletico under a lot of pressure. His hard work has paid dividends and Dortmund have a valuable lead.
52' CLOSE! Saul's shot hits the woodwork
Saul comes close again as he shifts onto his left foot before curling an effort towards the top corner but he sees his attempt bounce back off the frame of the goal.
73' GOAL! Dortmund 2-0 Atletico (Guerreiro)
The hosts move the ball around brilliantly and Hakimi finds space bursting down the left, cutting a low cross into the middle where Guerreiro tucks home with ease.
Second assist of the game for Hakimi, who has been a thorn in the side of Atletico and has regularly found space running beyond Juanfran.
84' GOAL! Dortmund 2-0 Atletico (Guerreiro)
Hakimi once again finds space charging down the left and he unselfishly passes across goal to Sancho, who taps home into the empty net to seal all three points for the home side.
Sensational run from Hakimi, who has been by far the best player this evening and has proven to be the difference between the two sides.
89' GOAL! Dortmund 4-0 Atletico (Guerreiro)
Filipe Luis sloppily gives the ball away to Guerreiro with a woeful pass across his own box and Guerreiro pounces to tuck home his second of the night.
Match Report
Borussia Dortmund are looming as a Champions League threat after taking command of Group A with an incredible 4-0 home win over Atletico Madrid on Wednesday.
Lucien Favre's Bundesliga leaders demonstrated impressive maturity to pile on three second-half goals and protect their unbeaten record in all competitions, while inflicting Diego Simeone's heaviest loss as Atleti coach.
The home side's defensive aptitude was scrutinised after Axel Witsel's heavily deflected 38th-minute opener and they convincingly passed the test with a dominant final 20 minutes, Raphael Guerreiro netting twice either side of a simple finish from fellow substitute Jadon Sancho.
The convincing result means Dortmund are now three points clear of Atleti, who remain five points ahead of the bottom two.
