History was rewritten on Wednesday as JDT secured their sixth straight MSL title, an unprecedented feat in the history of Malaysian football. It all started back in 2014, a year after JDT was rebranded into a club structure. Heavy investments were pumped into the playing squad and HRH Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim was rewarded with the title in his second season in charge.
Five seasons on and the JDT machine are showing no signs of slowing down. The playing squad is considerably different from the first batch of champions and so are the coaching staff. Yet the consistency in which JDT go about their business is nothing short of awe-inspiring and incredible.
