Klement on Switzerland
Runaway Group B favourite. Beats Egypt in a tighter-than-expected R32 thanks to squad depth, then falls to Portugal in the R16.
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
