In the 21st minute, Gravenberch was once again in the spotlight with a superb pass to Xavi Simons . The midfielder, on loan from PSG to RB Leipzig , was chased by two opponents and shot, but Ter Stegen saved .
The German side, coached by Julian Nagelsmann, equalised in the 38th minute. Florian Wirtz’s shot was saved by Verbruggen . Deniz Undav was quick to react and, with the rebound, restored parity in Amsterdam.

Even before the break, the Mannschaft , who had thrashed Hungary in the first round (5-0), completed the turnaround on the scoreboard. In the 45+3 minute, Andrich found David Raum on the left, already inside the area. The left-back, struggling, crossed first time to Joshua Kimmich who, completely alone, shot the ball into the back of the net.
The second half began with another goal. Musiala lost a dispute for the ball in a forbidden area and Xavi Simons found Brobbey , who held the ball well, turned towards goal, and crossed to the middle, where Dumfries appeared (50′) to tap in without much difficulty.
