Two footballing legends explain how failure can be the best coach

Source: World Economic Forum (video statements)

As football fans around the globe prepare for the biggest FIFA World Cup ever, what can the beautiful game teach us about life?

For Alessandro Del Piero, who lifted the trophy with Italy in 2006, the long journey to the tournament was marked by dedication, sacrifice, personal growth – and a willingness to make, and learn from, mistakes.

For Arsène Wenger, who won 3 Premier League titles as manager of Arsenal, success at the highest level depends on the ability to cope under pressure – and that, he says, begins with giving young players the freedom and confidence to get things wrong.
