Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Life is a beautiful game – but how should you play it?

For Sven-Göran Eriksson, one of the world’s most revered and respected football managers, the game has come to an end.
He leaves us with his parting reflections, looking back on what he has achieved, experienced and learned over a lifetime in service to the beautiful game. It is a journey that has taken him from a small club in his native Sweden, across every continent, to competing on the world’s stage.
Before his death, he was able to impart the lessons he’s learned along the way – about life, leadership and love – and to speak candidly about his extraordinary successes, as well as overcoming his failures.
On the field, he led some of the finest sportsmen on earth to great victories and heartbreaking defeats, and in the process left his indelible mark on the game. This is a story of lives touched and connections made in the dogged pursuit of excellence. But for Sven the true journey he wanted to share is the one he made on the inside – the man that he became.

Because A Beautiful Game is far more than the tale of a successful football manager. It is the story of the biggest game of all – what makes a good life. A story that endures, long after the final whistle.
