To be fair, all soccer fans riot after they win.
The sport is so low energy, they have to riot or it just wouldn’t be any fun.
CNN:
Belgian police detained dozens of people on Sunday after Morocco’s 2-0 World Cup win over Belgium at the World Cup triggered riots in Brussels.
In a statement to CNN, Brussels police said: “At around 3:22 pm, dozens of masked persons sought a confrontation with the security services, jeopardizing public safety.”
According to Reuters, several riots took place across the Belgian capital where dozens of soccer fans, some draped in Moroccan flags, clashed with riot police, setting a car on fire as well as electric scooters.
“It was immediately decided to proceed to a police intervention, with the use of a water cannon and tear gas,” the Brussels police said.

“Calm returned around 7 p.m. and preventive patrols are still present in the sectors concerned,” the statement concluded.
The office of Brussels mayor Philippe Close told CNN that parents of the young rioters will be held liable for damaged infrastructure in the Belgian capital.
“The situation is back to normal now. We hold the parents of the young rioters accountable for what happened, they will get the bill of the destroyed infrastructure,” Close said via a statement sent from his press office.
Haha.
Yeah, just call their poor dirt farmer mothers back in the homeland and send them the bill.
Okay.
There were no riots in Morocco itself
