The 2026 World Cup started. Many results are a surprise. Cape Verde drew against Spain. Australia beat Turkey. Nobody guessed all games right in the game. Only few people expected these results.
An expert named Joachim Klement has a plan. He uses math to predict winners. He uses the population size. He also uses the wealth of a country. He looks at the weather too. Klement was right 3 times before. He says: The Netherlands will win.
Germany has bad chances. The team of Julian Nagelsmann wins the group. But Germany plays against France later. This is the 'Achtel-Finale'. Klement says Germany loses this game. Japan could beat Brazil soon.
England won the first game. England beat Croatia 4 to 2. Harry Kane scored 2 goals. The trainer Thomas Tuchel wants to win the title. Some experts believe in him. Others are not sure. They say the defense of England is weak.
