3. Each and every player knew his role and contributed to it without taking notice of his personal name and fame (Team goals ahead of personal glamour)
4. They were always cool-headed on the field as well as off the field ( Be cool; not a fool)
5. When their captain and goalkeeper Iker Casillas was criticized, he or his team never retaliated with words (Action speaks louder than words)
This is what I have learned from the event of the year, but learnings are never limited, so please share your part of learnings with us and of course your comments are also welcomed (as usual!)
