Klement on Ecuador
Klement: most likely 2nd in Group E behind Germany.
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
