About 60 people arrested at Dutch cup final
A total of 59 people were arrested surrounding the KNVB cup final in Rotterdam on Sunday. Supporters were arrested on suspicion of defamation, hooliganism and fighting, among others. Three police officers were injured.
The arrests started even before the match between Feyenoord and FC Utrecht did, with 15 people arrested before the kickoff, according to RTL Nieuws. A video on social media shows a man showing his buttocks to the riot police, and then being arrested.
One police officer had to be taken to hospital after a police dog bit him. The other two officers were injured in confrontations with supporters.
