Iran : Mahmoudi Bayati (IRN) Israel: Dovid Schweitzer (ISR)

Playing before a crowd of 38,000 at the Amjadieh Stadium, Israel jumped to a 56th-minute lead with a goal from midfielder Giora Spiegel, but Iran rallied with goals from striker Homayoun Behzadi (75) and midfielder Parviz Ghelichkhani (86) to win 2-1 and complete their perfect record of four wins in four games.

The Iranian fans were on their feet to applaud the Israelis. Their nation had beaten them 2-1 in the final of the 1968 Asian Cup at Amjadeh Stadium but they still showed their appreciation for their Middle Eastern neighbours.
