He won trophies with subsequent clubs Home United, Geylang United, Singapore Armed Forces and Tampines Rovers. He won eight league titles and three Singapore Cups in 15 seasons, amassing three Player of the Year and four top scorer awards on the way to becoming the league's all-time top scorer.

At the international level, he debuted for Singapore at the age of 37 years in 2007. He became the first foreign-born player to start a match as captain in May 2008. He was on the Singapore squad for the AFF Championship in 2008, 2010, and 2012, the latter of which Singapore won. He retired from international football in December 2012 with a record of 24 goals in 53 matches. He was named the IFFHS World's Best Goal Scorer of the Decade for 2001 to 2010.
