🚨 𝗡𝗘𝗪: The economist who predicted the last three World Cup winners now predicts the Netherlands to win the 2026 tournament! 🇳🇱🏆 • A German economist named Joachim Klement built a statistical model from scratch in 2014 that has correctly called every World Cup champion since. • After nailing Germany in 2014, France in 2018 and Argentina in 2022, his system now forecasts the Netherlands as the unlikely 2026 champion. • Klement’s model weighs factors like population size, GDP per capita, FIFA ranking, climate and socioeconomic elements. • He openly admits the math only explains around 50% of the outcome, with the other half coming down to pure luck. • The whole thing started as a joke to mock mathematicians who think they can predict everything with numbers. • According to the projections, the Dutch will knock out France in the quarter-finals, Spain in the semis and Portugal in the final. • The model also has Brazil crashing out in the round of 16 against Japan.
