Germany’s Euro 2024 Round of 16 game against Denmark resumes after lightning at Signal Iduna Park

A UEFA game can resume 30 minutes after the last lightning strike that falls outside of a 10-mile radius of the stadium.

The UEFA Euro 2024 Round of 16 match between Germany and Denmark at Dortmund’s Signal Iduna Park was halted in the 36th minute due to severe weather. However, the match has resumed now. Referee Michael Oliver stopped the game as lightning struck over the stadium.
