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.
Klement on Qatar
Klement: surprisingly competitive but finishes 3rd in Group B after a first-ever WC win against Bosnia.
“If you take this model seriously, you are deluding yourself.” — J. Klement
