Klement on Netherlands
Klement's WINNER. Grinds through Morocco, Canada, then beats France (own goal!) in the QF, Spain in the SF (penalties), and Portugal in a tight 1-0 final. 'Finally winning the trophy they should have won a long time ago.'
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
