Klement on Brazil
Tops Group C trivially. But Klement's headline upset of 2026: Japan beats Brazil in the R32 — 'one of the biggest upsets in World Cup history.'
Klement on Australia
Klement: wins the most balanced group of the tournament 'mostly due to the ineptitude of their opponents, and if that isn't enough, then cheating'. Falls to Belgium in the R16.
“If you take this model seriously, you are deluding yourself.” — J. Klement
