Former Manchester United star Bryan Robson has guided the Thailand national team to a vital 3-1 win over Singapore in an Asian Cup qualifier.

The win saw Thailand move into second place in Group E, two points behind Iran and Robson has the team playing a great brand of football since he took over from Peter Reid in September.

Robson has managed Middlesbrough, West Brom, Bradford City and Sheffield United and took the reins from Reid who left his post as national team manager to become assistant manager at Stoke City.

In the match, Melbourne Victory striker Sutee Suksomkit netted twice as Thailand forged to a 3-0 lead before Singapore scored a late consolation goal.
