Mexican soccer fans were dispersed by police after a celebration turned disorderly.

The majority of the hundreds of fans that poured into the streets of Huntington Park, California after Mexico won its world Cup match Monday were peaceful, but about a dozen began rocking cars and tossing bottles at riot officers.

The team beat Croatia 3-1 to advance from the group stage of the soccer tournament to the knockout round for the sixth World Cup in a row.

Fans poured into the streets of the suburban Los Angeles town waiving Mexican flags and chanting while cars tried to navigate by.

Police on motorcycles and even horseback soon arrived to control the increasingly rowdy gathering.

It took police more than two hours to finally bring the crowd under control and move it out of the busy street, according to KCBS.
