What was expected happened, and the German national team qualified for the quarter-finals of the Euro 2024 Championship, at the expense of its Danish counterpart, on a special night for Toni Kroos and a scenario that witnessed the course of the match changing in just one minute.
The German national team achieved a victory over its Danish counterpart, with two goals to none, in the match that was held at Signal Iduna Park Stadium, and will await the winner of the match between Spain and Georgia, which will be held on Sunday evening.
The Danish team played an ideal first half and could have scored at any moment, but the German experience controlled the match and decided it in their favor.
Crazy minute!
The match between Germany and Denmark witnessed a crazy minute, after the referee cancelled a goal for Denmark in the 51st minute, scored by Andersen, due to offside.
Then, in the 52nd minute, the referee awarded a penalty kick in favor of the German national team, after the ball hit the hand of the same player who scored the disallowed goal, Andersen.
Havertz succeeded in scoring the German lead in the 53rd minute of the match, so that the tide of the match completely turned from Denmark’s lead to Germany’s lead with an unanswered goal.
Toni Kroos .. The motivation of the last match
Kroos imposed himself as one of the stars of the match, after the level he showed during Germany’s confrontation against Denmark, playing one of his best matches with his country’s national team.
Kroos now plays every match with Germany in the Euro, as if he is playing his last match, because if the machines are eliminated from the tournament, this means his retirement from football permanently, and therefore the motivation is very great for the retired Real Madrid midfielder.
Kroos played more than wonderful technical roles, as he appeared in both defense and building attacks as a third defender, where he was able to control the rhythm of the match with his abilities, and move all the Germans’ keys.
Although Kroos has decided to retire from football, he continues to teach everyone until his last minute on the pitch.
