English Woman's Journal - 'Everything is possible': Denmark unawed by Germany in last 16

Denmark drew 0-0 with Serbia in Munich on Tuesday but qualified second in the group after the parallel England-Slovenia Group C match finished with the same scoreline.

With Denmark and Slovenia equal on points along with goals scored and assisted -- and even yellow cards -- the Danes progressed due to having a higher European qualification ranking.

As a result, Denmark -- who reached the semi-finals of the most recent Euros -- will face hosts Germany in Dortmund on Saturday.

"Everything is possible," Vestergaard told MagentaTV after the game.

"The Germans are a strong team. We need a really strong performance and to stop Germany from showing their best form."

Along with Spain, Germany have won the Euros a record three times but were defeated in the final of the 1992 edition in Sweden by Denmark, the only time the Danes lifted the trophy.

Manchester United midfielder Christian Eriksen was named man of the match in his 133rd game for Denmark, setting the all-time appearances record.

Eriksen's low corner allowed Jonas Wind to score in the first-half, but the goal was chalked off as the ball went out.

The midfielder also created an excellent chance for Vestergaard with 25 minutes remaining, but the Leicester City defender headed straight at Serbia's goalie.

Serbia had a goal ruled out midway through the second half when Luka Jovic was found to be offside in the build-up.
