Klement on Turkey
First WC since 2002. Not at peak strength but edges Iran in the R32, then loses to Argentina 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
