Clashes erupt in the Netherlands after Morocco’s World Cup victory

In The Hague, celebrations for Morocco’s win over the Netherlands escalated into clashes with police as officers moved in to disperse crowds.

Scenes move from street celebrations to arrests, with people running as riot police intervene and detain several individuals.

Earlier, supporters gathered after the World Cup last-32 match, waving flags, honking car horns and filming the celebrations.

The atmosphere then changes as police arrive, with baton charges and arrests on the streets. Some are pinned to the ground or led away by officers.

Despite the unrest, other groups continue to celebrate Morocco’s victory from balconies and cars, with flags still visible across parts of the city.
