1958 Asian Games (May 1958)

In spite of having such talent as a returning Afshar-Alavinejad and Bayati, and new players like Dehdari, Iran had a very poor showing at the 1958 Asian Games in Japan. In its first match, Iran was overpowered by a strong Israeli side by a lopsided 4-0 score. 

It was followed by a 5-0 defeat against South Korea to be eliminated from the competition.


 


Iran roster: Mohammad Bayati, Jafarzadeh, Afshar-Alavinejad, Gholizadeh, Araghi, Arghavani, Dehdari, Erfan, Hatam, Beheshti, Mahmood Bayati, Koozehkanani, Jedikar, Boroomand. Coach: Mészáros
