According to the NL Times, police were attacked with flares and stones in several cities in the Netherlands during riots after Morocco's 2-1 victory over the Canadians at the World Cup in Qatar.

Victory in the match allowed the Moroccans to reach the playoffs of the championship, where they will play against Spain in the rounds of 16.

In Amersfoort, police used batons and service dogs to quash a protest of about 300 people. Law enforcers were pelted with flares, and people also drove around in cars and scooters waving Moroccan flags.

Ten people were arrested in the capital, Amsterdam, including five minors. They also threw firecrackers at police officers, which resulted in the hearing injury of one of their officers.

Rocks were also thrown at police cars in Rotterdam. The police detained five offenders. Riots broke out in other cities in the Netherlands as well. As a result, about 20 people were arrested all over the country.
