“I won’t deny that it is pleasant to succeed in what you strive to do, but winning matches at all costs is not the test of true achievement.
There is no dishonor in defeat, as long as you play to the limit of your strength and skill. What matters above all things is that the game should be played in the right spirit, with the utmost resource of skill and courage, with fair play and no favor, with every man playing as a member of a team, and the result accepted without bitterness or conceit.”
Sir Matt Busby
Former coach of Manchester United from 1945-1971
