uh, hexabros...
>the model overfitted to past tournaments accurately predicts past tournamentsVery impressive
Fr?

These niggas never accurately predict anything

Netherlands is definitely a dark horse. Their defense is top tier but I don't know how much they can trust Depay and Gakpo to score them goals
>>154880842:(
>>154880842ok but i only trust vetted sources
there's no way if portugal and netherlands face in the finals there wouldn't be huge refball
>Netherlands>in 2026Lol. They're fucking shite and have been since Robben and RVP retired.
>>154890475They're unironically good.
>semi finals
>>154890699F
>>154890457The Greatest of all timeF
>>154890475They have Memphis
>>154890307Its oger
>>154880842Shit model. We never lose to the Dutch. You can keep your hexa hopes, mermão.
Cody Gakpo played 36 matches for Liverpool this season and scored a whopping 7 goals.

>>154880842>Argentina losing to PortugalDon't see it happening not with Portugal having that huge handicap known as Ronaldo playing.
>>154891216>Memepiss Depaidsyeah NGMI
At least it's not completely retarded like a new team outside of Europe winning, but no, the Netherlands aren't winning the World Cup.
>>154880842/sp/ unusable until they lose the final
>>154880842>German economist
>>154897861>until they lose the finalThat would make it even more unusable
>>154890555>qualified from a meme group with poland, binland, lithuania and malta>nearly fumbled against lithuania>drew twice to polish shitterslmfao
>>154880842I bet they linked the posts before the 2014, 2018 and 2024 World Cups predicting the winners, and are not making it up, right?

for me it was the tapir that was always wrongeven when he picked Spain over us UEFA later confirmed he was wrong
>>154880842Did he predict his car would be burned by morrocans in 2022 ?
>>154880842>>German economist Joachim Klement’s model—which has an astonishing 100% accurate track record after correctly forecasting Germany in 2014, France in 2018, and Argentina in 2022—has officially named the Netherlands as the [2026 World Cup] champions over Portugal in a 1-0 final.Klement’s econometric model at Panmure Liberum uses systemic parameters like population, GDP per capita, FIFA rankings, and climate, alongside a massive 45–50% variable for pure raw "luck". Looking strictly at the environmental, physiological, and logistical realities we just mapped out, a Netherlands vs. Portugal final is not just statistically possible—it is a brilliant structural prediction.Here is exactly how this specific outcome would manifest through the tournament layout:>1. The Texas "AC Shield" LaunchpadBoth nations hit the structural jackpot during the group stage. Portugal is placed in Group K, and the Netherlands is in Group F, meaning both are assigned to the Central Region pod.* The Energy Preservation: They will play vital matches in Houston (NRG Stadium) and Dallas (AT&T Stadium).* The Climate Edge: While teams like Spain boil in the Miami humidity and Argentina burns 6,000 miles of jet-lagged travel, the Dutch and Portuguese will be playing in crisp, 21°C artificial indoor climates. They will comfortably cruise into the knockout rounds with pristine, un-burned glycogen stores.
>>1549092022. The Great Favorites CollapseKlement’s model specifically projects traditional heavyweight giants like Argentina, France, and Brazil to be eliminated early. Logistically, this makes perfect sense: * Brazil and Argentina are trapped in cross-continental, multi-timezone travel hell across the West/Central split.* If France or Spain stumble into the open-air humidity traps of Miami or the lung-burning altitude of Mexico City during the Round of 32 crossover, a hyper-athletic underdog can easily overrun them in the 80th minute. The Dutch, staying relatively stationary and climate-shielded, would comfortably capitalise on a fractured, exhausted bracket. 3. Portugal's Path: Exorcising the Ghost of 2006On Portugal's side of the bracket, Klement’s model maps out a path where they face and eliminate England in the semi-finals, echoing their legendary, grueling encounters from Euro 2004 and the 2006 World Cup. * The Edge: If England tops Group L, their path takes them through the 2,240-meter altitude of Mexico City in the Round of 16. By the time a deeply fatigued England reaches the semi-finals, a fresh, rotation-heavy Portuguese squad operating at sea level would completely suffocate them out of possession.4. The 1-0 Final: Decided by Klement’s "Luck" Variable The final is scheduled for MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on 19 July. Because MetLife is an open-air venue, the mid-July New York heat will be a major factor.* The Stagnant Final: After navigating an expanded, grueling 8-match tournament, both teams will naturally prioritize tactical structure over chaotic flair. * The 45% Factor: Klement himself notes that there is almost zero qualitative difference between the top lines of the Netherlands and Portugal. Therefore, the 1-0 victory would come down to pure, clinical variance—a solitary moment of magic from a player like Xavi Simons or a deflected set-piece, finally breaking the "Oranje" curse of losing three previous World Cup finals.
