In the 1/8 final of the European Championship, with 22 minutes left in the game, Musiala scored the second goal to seal a place in the quarterfinals for Germany.
In Germany's 2-0 win over Denmark, the greatest force of nature was not the lightning, thunder and hail that caused the first half to interrupt for more than 20 minutes. It's the host's sense of destiny.
Kai Havertz opened the scoring for Julian Nagelsmann's side after 53 minutes, while Musiala's brilliant run and finish also capped the game.
The home side were firmly in the ascendancy ahead of the delay, but failed to capitalise on their chances. Nico Schlotterbeck, who came into the starting line-up with Jonathan Tach suspended, thought he would give his side the lead after four minutes, but his header was ruled out for a foul by referee Michael Oliver.
Denmark have drawn all three of their group stage matches, so they are once again on the defensive, allowing Germany to dominate possession and limit their attacking opportunities.
The plan seemed to work when Joachim Anderson fired a left-footed shot over Manuel Neuer's goal in the 48th minute. However, video replays determined that Thomas Delaney was offside during the attack, just one toe away.
That's when the gods of fate struck, as the Germans turned the tide of the game in an instant.
David Raum quickly crossed the ball from the left and after a review, the ball bounced onto the arm of a helpless Anderson.
Havertz made no mistake as his left-footed shot went past Schmeichel and grazed the post and into the back of the net. As the pace of the game picked up, Musiala gradually got into the groove and Schlotterbeck's pass allowed him to make it 2-0 and eventually stabilize the situation on the pitch.
Super substitute Niklas Fulkrueger should have doubled the lead in the final moments, but he couldn't score his third goal of the tournament.
Despite this, the German team continued to move forward with confidence.
