Germany v Denmark LIVE: Final score and result after sublime Jamal Musiala strikes for Euro 2024 hosts

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.

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?

3 mins: Christian Eriksen looks to get Joakim Maehle forward on the left wing for Denmark but Maehle is clattered by Antonio Rudiger who takes the ball and fizzes a pass into Ilkay Gundogan to get Germany moving forward once more.

Proper defending there.

Germany get the ball rolling for this last-16 tie. They work the ball over the right wing and slip it forward to Leroy Sane. He weaves into the box and squeezes off a cross but Denmark defend it well.

Here come the players.

Christian Eriksen looks focused and determined ahead of this one. It’s going to be a tough ask for Denmark to get past the hosts this evening but if they play as they did against England they are well in with a chance of winning.

Germany will want to avoid an upset. As the hosts they’ll be hoping to go far in this tournament.

Germany will be tested by the Danes but the absence of Morten Hjulmand could be key.

The hosts will certainly have enough creativity to open up the Danish defence, so as long as they can stay solid at the back they should get a straightforward win.

Germany 2-0 Denmark.

Germany have reached the Euros knockout stages for a fifth consecutive tournament. Their last two knockout matches have both ended in 2-0 defeats, to France in the Euro 2016 semi-final and England in the Euro 2020 last 16.

Denmark have lost all five of their previous European Championship matches against host nations, including one against Germany in the 1988 group stage.

They were eliminated by hosts England at Wembley in the semi-final of the last Euros (2-1).

Three of the last four meetings between Germany and Denmark in all competitions have been drawn (Germany won the other 2-1 at Euro 2012), which is more draws than the first 24 encounters between the two sides beforehand (two).

This will be the fifth meeting between Germany and Denmark at a major tournament (World Cup/Euros), with both sides winning two each of the previous four.

The only previous knockout stage tie between the two nations was the final of Euro 1992, which Denmark won 2-0.
