DPR Korea beat Thailand 4-1 to reach the quarter finals of the AFC U-16 Championship India 2016 at GMC Stadium in Goa. 
Midfielder Kye had returned from a suspension to make his first start of the tournament and he gave DPR Korea the lead from the spot just before half-time. 
The same player then added two more goals after the hour-mark before Hassawat Nopnate's reply from Thailand gave a glimmer of hope. 
That hope was extinguished with 10 minutes remaining by substitute Ri Kang-guk's goal that capped off an impressive performance by the defending champions who will meet fellow quarter-finalists Uzbekistan - who defeated Yemen 1-0 in the day's earlier game - on Friday to determine the Group D winners.
