Star player Steins plays at the World Cup with deceased father in mind

Luc Steins is the driving force of the Dutch handball players and the absolute star player of the team, but the recent death of his father has left its mark. Steins has spent as much time as possible with his terminally ill father in recent months and has paid much less attention to handball. “My form and focus are not as they should be in top sport, but I have to accept it and do what I can,” says the 27-year-old player on the eve of the handball World Cup.
