The head of the Danish Agency for Patient Safety said the people were infected independently of each other and were infected during the game.
"They did not get symptoms until three or four days later, which means that there must have been some kind of unknown source of infection present in the section where they sat," Anette Lykke Petri told Danish broadcaster DR.
Denmark has reported 247 case of the variant since April 2. According to Danish media, the fans that tested positive were Danes.
Copenhagen will host one more match at Euro 2020 on Monday. Spain will face Croatia in the round of 16 in that game. Denmark will play its next game against Wales in Amsterdam on Saturday.
Heunicke said the Danish Patient Safety Authority and the Danish soccer federation "work closely together on effective infection detection."
