Welcome to EmpowHER. I am very glad you reached out to our community with your question before your girlfriend took an emergency contraceptive.
From the details, there was no risk for pregnancy, and no need to take an ECP. You used a condom during intercourse, thus protected sex. You never touched the ejaculated semen. Sperm can live outside the body for about 20 minutes. Once semen has dried, all sperm is dead.
So, no risk for pregnancy.
