Thailand steer by Peter Reid and ex-Perak head coach Steve Darby get the right tune for Thailand in the first game against Vietnam. Thailand opened their account through Sutee Suksomkit. His nicely done free kick sent the home fans crazy. Before half time, Thailand adds another goal through Suchao Nutnum after Vietnam goalkeeper mishandled Sutee Suksomkit cross.

Thailand is second behind Malaysia in group B table through goal differences. They will meet Laos in the next match on Monday. If they win again Laos, they will qualify into semifinal. It going to be simple job for Peter Reid to semifinal AFF Suzuki Cup 2008.
