Football fans clashed with police in The Hague after Morocco defeated the Netherlands in the North American World Cup. The African side triumphed over the "Oranje" 3-2 in a penalty shootout, following a 1-1 draw in regular time and extra time. Moroccan fans set off fireworks in the Schilderswijk district, and police were pelted with stones and other objects immediately after the match between the Netherlands and Morocco concluded. Riot police deployed water cannons to disperse the gathering.
"Several individuals have been arrested for committing acts of violence," The Hague police announced on Tuesday.
Hundreds of supporters celebrated their team's success in the Moroccan city of Casablanca. Early local time, fans waved flags, danced, and chanted "Canada, we're coming for you." Four years ago, Morocco became the first African team to reach the semi-finals of a World Cup. The "Lions'" next opponent at the 2026 World Cup is Canada.
