What is The Galaxy World Cup about?

When aliens mistake schoolboy Nick and his misfit friends for Earth's top footballers, they are whisked across the galaxy to compete in an interstellar tournament against real aliens. The catch? They're actually the worst players on Earth! To return home, they must band together, embrace teamwork, and attempt to score a goal.
