Hockey World Cup: "Until my final gasp, until there's life inside me, I will proceed with this. I will pass on finishing this work."
Dominic Toppo lays on the backboard of a goal line, soaked in sweat and noticeably depleted in the wake of playing quarter-court hockey on an unforgiving Sunday morning for near five hours.
