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 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
