In the other fixture, Germany saved themselves from group phase exit with their second equaliser in the 84th minute through Leon Goretzka.

All three top sides in the “group of death” – France, Germany and defending champions Portugal – progress to the Round of 16.

France will face Switzerland in the second round, while Germany take on England and Portugal challenge Belgium.
