Simplified Meaning:
It’s not just winning that matters; it’s how you play. Imagine someone who loves painting. For them, it’s not just about making a beautiful picture, but enjoying each brushstroke and being true to their style. The person in the quote feels that way about football. They care more about their effort, sportsmanship, and passion during the game than just the final score or trophies. If you try your best and stay true to yourself in whatever you do, that's something to be proud of, no matter what the outcome is. This mindset can apply to any part of life, like school, work, or hobbies, where focusing on your dedication and honesty can bring you real satisfaction.
