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 United States
Co-host. Klement: host advantage diluted across 3 countries; US finishes 3rd, qualifies as best third, then loses easily to Germany in the R32.
