Last-gasp Fuellkrug goal rescues top spot for Euro hosts Germany

By Redoy K

Germany secured top spot in Euro 2024 Group A with a last-gasp 1-1 draw against Switzerland in Frankfurt. Dan Ndoye gave Switzerland the lead in the 28th minute, stunning the hosts. Niclas Fuellkrug came off the bench to equalize with a stoppage-time header, rescuing Germany. The result means Switzerland faces a tougher last-16 match-up, while Germany will likely meet the second-place team from England’s group. German coach Nagelsmann called the equalizer and group win “deserved.” AFP
