The idea behind the show was to select a team of soccer players with no professional playing experience known as "MyTeam", have them trained by top coach, and then have them play a match against the Malaysian national football team (which MyTeam lost 2-1).
Malaysian politician Khairy Jamaluddin and radio DJ Jason Lo were the creators of the MyTeam concept, and served as the Executive Producers of the show.
The show was launched through an event at Kuala Lumpur Planet Hollywood, and was hailed as a football revolution.
Prior to the match, controversy was stirred up when the Secretary-General of the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) likened MyTeam to a packet of instant noodles.
There was also an element of mystery as there was a fair amount of speculation over the "national team" that would show up to play MyTeam.
In two separate incidents that occurred between goals from both teams, MyTeam's captain and Malaysian striker Zaquan Adha were sent off.
The match did generate a considerable amount of interest, though many scorned the supposed "revolution of Malaysian football".
