Age has not caught Jan Kliment yet — 9.28
At 34 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 9.28 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

A performance of 9.10 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.
