The two sides were brought back onto the pitch 24 minutes later to warm up before the game resumed. 

Second-half goals from Kai Havertz and Jamal Musiala, a contender for the player of the tournament award, sent Die Mannschaft into the next round, holding off a valiant Denmark.

It was the host nation's first win in the knockout stage of a major tournament since 2016.
