The 31st King's Cup finals were held from 20 to 27 February 2000 at the Rajamangala Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand. The King's Cup (คิงส์คัพ) is an annual football tournament; the first tournament was played in 1968.
Hosts Thailand won the tournament beating Finland 5–1 in the final. The surprising match results are due to Brazil actually having two teams in the tournament; U-17 team (called U-20 in Brazilian records) that played against Finland and Estonia, while the A-team faced Thailand.
