Julian Nagelsmann’s Germany face Denmark in their last-16 tie at Euro 2024 tonight.

The hosts strolled through the group stages, with two impressive performances in their opening two games meaning they had qualified with a game to spare when they faced Switzerland, though the nature of that 1-1 draw means that Nagelsmann will be demanding an exciting performance.

Denmark had a far more underwhelming group stage, with three draws meaning they picked up a measly three points that was just enough to creep through in second place in Group C. But with a solid side including Christian Eriksen, Rasmus Hojlund and a wealth of experienced defenders, Denmark are capable of springing the latest surprise at Euro 2024, and Germany will need to be on form if they’re to earn a place in the quarter-finals.

Germany 0-0 Denmark

A hopeful long ball is exceptionally played over to Christian Eriksen who darts in behind Antonio Rudiger and brings the ball down with the most perfect of touches.

He shifts the ball around the defender but Rudiger manages to recover and get in the block!

He needed to stop that as it was heading for goal. Better from Denmark.

Germany 0-0 Denmark

20 mins: Denmark are really struggling to get a foothold in the match. When they get up the pitch Germany’s defensive line is on top of them quickly and there’s little room for the likes of Rasmus Hojlund and Christian Eriksen to operate.

It’s tough going but they’re slowly starting to settle.

NO GOAL! Germany 0-0 Denmark

5 mins: The goal is ruled out on the field by the referee who saw an infringement in the box. The defender marking Schlotterbeck was apparantly stopped from doing his job so the goal doesn’t stand.

Seems a harsh decision based on the replays.

GOAL! Germany 1-0 Denmark (Schlotterbeck, 4’)⚽️

4 mins: David Raum brings down an aerial pass and touches the ball into the box. Alexander Bah manages to recover and pokes the ball out for a corner.

The corner is whipped into the box where Nico Schlotterbeck leaps above everyone else. He meets the ball and powers it into the back of the net!

But, will this goal stand?
