Thousands of Arsenal supporters took over Nairobi’s CBD on Wednesday, May 27, gathering at the Kenya National Archives to celebrate the club’s Premier League title and what turned out to be a replica trophy.
A video from the event has since gone viral, sparking debate over whether the silver cup on display was the authentic Premier League trophy.
Dressed in red and white, fans erupted into chants, dancing and song as a man carefully lifted the trophy from a box and raised it aloft.
Firecrackers and fireworks lit up the evening sky as the celebrations continued, creating a lively atmosphere that lasted into the night.
