GERMANY BOOK QUARTER-FINAL SPOT
Host nation Germany progressed into the Euro 2024 quarter-final thanks to a second half Kai Havertz penalty, which was followed by a Jamal Musiala second goal.
However, Denmark will feel aggrieved of their exit after Joachim Andersen thought he had given his country a 48th minute lead, only for VAR to rule it out for off-side.
Just two minutes after seeing his goal ruled out Andersen was then judged by VAR to have handled a cross into the box and Havertz dispatched the spot kick.
Rasmus Hojlund had several good chances in both halves and was denied an equaliser after capitalising on a defensive error but firing at goalkeeper Manuel Neuer.
Germany sealed their quarter-final spot as Nico Schlotterbeck sent a floated ball into the path of Musiala who fired home.
The home nation could have added to the score-line late on, but were met by a determined Kasper Schmeichel performance.
Germany will now face either Spain or Georgia in the quarter-final.
