The 24-year-old attacker made his mark in the 30th minute with a sublime finish from inside the penalty area, contributing to his team's third goal of the night.
Eric Ebimbe notched goals in the 12th and 89th minutes, while Robin Koch added to the tally in the 27th minute. Tuta extended the lead in injury time of the first half, securing a 4-0 advantage. Ellyas Skhiri joined the scoring spree in the 55th minute.
After his impressive contribution, Marmoush made way for Jessic Ngankam in the 56th minute.
This remarkable performance follows Marmoush's earlier goals against Aberdeen 2-1 in the opening match and his team's lone goal in a 2-1 loss to Paok Salonika in Group G. With this hat-trick against HJK Helsinki, Marmoush has enjoyed a prolific start to his maiden season with Eintracht Frankfurt, amassing a total of six goals in 14 appearances across all competitions.
