Xavi Simons gave the Dutch the lead in the seventh minute with a powerful strike from outside the box which sailed into the net past Jordan Pickford.
Seven minutes later, Harry Kane was caught in by Denzel Dumfries inside the Dutch penalty box, after which Kane went down clutching his feet.
After the ball went out of play, German referee Felix Zwayer paused the match while the VAR referees were checking for a potential penalty. Zwayer was then instructed to go to the video screen himself and take a look.
Repeated replays showed that despite hitting the ball out of play, Kane was at the receiving end of a late high foot challenge from Dumfries, prompting the referee to award the referee.
Kane stood over the penalty himself and found the bottom corner to level the game and became the player with the most goal in major tournament knockouts.
