Klement on Croatia
Klement: 'small Croatia will once again punch well above its weight.' Beats Colombia in the R32 on experience, loses to Spain in the R16.
Klement on Canada
Co-host. Klement says host advantage is diluted but still enough to lift Canada past Czechia in the R32; loses to the Netherlands in the R16.
“If you take this model seriously, you are deluding yourself.” — J. Klement
