Switzerland vs Germany Highlights, Euro: Niclas Fullkrug scored deep into stoppage time to rescue a 1-1 draw for Germany in their Euro 2024 Group A match against Switzerland in Frankfurt. Fullkrug's strike gave Germany top spot in Group A, with Switzerland joining them as the runners up. Germany were left chasing the match after Dan Ndoye nodded home Remo Freuler's cross from close range in the 28 minute to give Switzerland a shock lead in the first half. This came after Germany had a goal ruled out by VAR due to foul in the build-up. Switzerland too had a goal ruled out in the second half due to off-side after Ruben Vargas had found the back of the net with a neat finish. (Match-Center)
Last-Gasp Niclas Fuellkrug Goal Rescues Top Spot For Euro 2024 Hosts Germany
A stoppage-time header from Niclas Fuellkrug has rescued a 1-1 draw for Germany against Switzerland on Sunday in Frankfurt, ensuring the Euro hosts finish top of Group A. The Swiss hit the lead early, Dan Ndoye booting in from close range after 28 minutes to stun the home side. Germany took a series of risks late in the hope of an equaliser and veteran striker Fuellkrug delivered, heading home in the second minute of stoppage time.
