Germany were stung early, Tijjani Reijnders giving the hosts the lead after 99 seconds. The shellshocked visitors gave up several chances in the opening half an hour, but eventually fought back to lead, thanks to two goals in seven minutes from Deniz Undav and new captain Joshua Kimmich before the break. Denzel Dumfries, who missed a golden chance early, levelled things up just after half-time and despite both sides spurning chances - including a poor Kai Havertz miss from close range - the score remained level at full-time.
