The Cincinnati Bengals defeated the Atlanta Falcons in a high-scoring Week 9 NFL matchup at Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid on November 8, 2026. The game marked the league's second regular-season contest in the Spanish capital following the inaugural 2025 edition.
Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase scored a touchdown reception during the contest, which featured a shootout-style offensive battle. The Falcons' defense struggled to contain Cincinnati's attack in what was described as bringing a "paper sword to a shootout."
The 2026 NFL Madrid Game continues the league's international expansion efforts, drawing a capacity crowd to the historic Real Madrid venue.
