In Dortmund, the Round of 16 match of the 2024 European Championship between Germany and Denmark is underway.

The game began with attacks from the German team, who even managed to open the scoring, but the goal was disallowed due to a foul in the attack by Kimmich. Towards the end of the first half, the Danes managed to calm the game down and push their opponents away from their goal, but then the weather intervened.

Due to the onset of rain, lightning, and thunder, referee Michael Oliver decided to suspend the match. The British referee first led the players closer to the benches, and then sent the teams to the locker rooms.

Broadcast footage shows that hail began in Dortmund.
