Klement on Germany
Tops Group E easily this time. Beats USA in the R32, then loses to France in a R16 classic. Klement: 'It pains me to say this, but France is clearly a much better team than Germany.'
Klement on South Africa
Outsider in Group A in Klement's model.
“If you take this model seriously, you are deluding yourself.” — J. Klement
