Klement on England
Klement: tops Group L. Beats Norway, then South Korea, then Japan in the QF (Kane back). Loses a tight SF to Portugal — 'in a knock-out match, anything can happen.'
Klement on Japan
Klement's dark horse. Beats Brazil in the R32 (the upset of the tournament), edges Senegal in the R16, then loses to a Kane-led England in the QF.
“If you take this model seriously, you are deluding yourself.” — J. Klement
