Germany and Denmark players had to return to their dressing rooms after thunder, lightning and heavy rain hit the first half of their Euro 2024 last 16 game.

The score was at 0-0. Even hail began to fall.

Bad weather had been forecast but organizers hope to restart the game later. However, the Dortmund turf took a hammering from a very heavy downpour.
