Klement on Portugal
Klement's surprise finalist. Beats Ivory Coast, then Switzerland in the R16 (with Bruno Fernandes, Joao Neves, Bernardo Silva — and 'ideally without Ronaldo'), then Argentina in OT in the QF, then England in a scrappy SF, before losing 1-0 to the Netherlands in the final.
Klement on Ivory Coast
Klement: qualifies as best third, loses comfortably to Portugal in the R32.
