Klement on Croatia
Klement: 'small Croatia will once again punch well above its weight.' Beats Colombia in the R32 on experience, loses to Spain in the R16.
Klement on Scotland
First WC of the 21st century for Scotland. Klement: missing an Archie Gemmill-type striker; sunshine and pristine pitches don't help; loses to South Korea in the R32.
“If you take this model seriously, you are deluding yourself.” — J. Klement
