Arsenal stars—in training—were caught by surprise by the drummers before joining the dancers in jubilation.
"It was just a normal day at training...and then this happened. Thanks for coming to see us, @visitrwanda_now,” Arsenal FC tweeted.
Visit Rwanda said in a tweet that; "On Tuesday we surprised @Arsenal at training with a band of traditional drummers and dancers to celebrate the launch of the partnership and give the players a taste of Rwanda,”
"We are here to surprise the Arsenal team with the performance of Intore dance from Rwanda.” One of the Intore dancers said in a video, which was circulated on social media platforms.
"Intore literally means "the Chosen best of the best”. The dance symbolises pride and the chant is the call for victory, he explained.
