Klement on South Korea
Favoured to win Group A; not as strong as it used to be, but still good enough to edge Scotland in the R32 before falling to England in the R16.
Klement on Algeria
Klement: qualifies as best third, loses tight to Australia in the R32.
“If you take this model seriously, you are deluding yourself.” — J. Klement
