Denmark will be hoping to stage a repeat of one of the most famous victories in their history when they face Euro 2024 hosts Germany in their last-16 match on Saturday.

The Danes famously beat the Germans 2-0 back in 1992 to win the European Championship for the first time.

Both these sides are unbeaten so far at the tournament but Denmark defender Jannik Vestergaard is confident he and his team-mates are capable of not just beating Germany, but potentially repeating their success from 32 years ago.

“We know that to win the tournament it would be a bit of an upset,” he said. “But we like being underdogs.

“Germany will be favourites, but we like being a bit of a pain to the opposition and playing to our strengths.”

Denmark boss Kasper Hjulmand believes Germany will need to be at their very best to have a chance of beating his side.

“At the start I considered Germany one of the favourites, and it’s too bad that they’re playing us,” he said.

“They have quality and talent, and expressed themselves very well in the group. But we also have quality and talent, and they’ll have to be very, very good to beat us.”
