Klement on Morocco
African champions, 2022 semi-finalists. Klement: strong defence, beaten 1-0 by the Netherlands in the R16.
Klement on Iran
Klement notes participation uncertainty given the war; if they play, 2nd in group but lose to Turkey in the R32.
“If you take this model seriously, you are deluding yourself.” — J. Klement
