Klement on France
Klement: 'absolutely brilliant' — Mbappé, Dembélé, Olise, Tchouaméni, Kanté, Upamecano. Beats Sweden, then Germany in the R16, but loses 1-0 to the Netherlands in the QF on an own goal.
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.
“If you take this model seriously, you are deluding yourself.” — J. Klement
