BRIEF-Soccer-European trio to contest Thai tournament
BANGKOK, Nov 4 (Reuters) - Sweden, Poland and Denmark will play in next year’s King’s Cup tournament with hosts Thailand, a local newspaper reported on Wednesday.
The four countries will contest the annual round-robin tournament in the northeastern Thai city of Nakhon Ratchasima from Jan. 17-23, the Bangkok Post quoted Thai soccer federation president, Worawi Makudi, as saying.
Thailand, who are now coached by former England and Manchester United captain Bryan Robson, have won the tournament 13 times since it was inaugurated in 1968. (Reporting by Martin Petty; Editing by ****; To comment on this story, e-mail: sportsfeedback@thomsonreuters.com)
