Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox games The 7th Asian Games (Шаблон:Lang-fa) were held from 1 to 16 September 1974 in Tehran, Iran. The Aryamehr Sports Complex was built for the Games. The Asian Games were hosted in the Middle East for the first time. Tehran, the capital of Iran, played host to 3,010 athletes coming from 25 countries/NOCs, the highest number of participants since the inception of the Games.

Fencing, gymnastics and women's basketball were added to the existing disciplines. The games were known for the use of state-of-the-art technology, from synthetic track to photo-finish cameras.

History

Starting in 1962, the Games were hit by several crises. First, the host country Indonesia, refused to permit the participation of Israel and the Republic of China (Taiwan) due to political and religious issues. As a result, the IOC removed its sponsorship of the Games and terminated Indonesia as one of the IOC members.[1] The Asian Football Confederation (AFC),[2] International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) and International Weightlifting Federation (IWF), also removed their recognition of the Games.[3][4]

In 1970, South Korea dropped its plan to host the Games due to national security crisis; however, the main reason was the financial crisis, forcing the previous host Thailand to administer the Games again in Bangkok using funds transferred from South Korea.[5] Prior to the Games, Japan was asked to host the Games, but declined due to Expo '70 in Osaka.[6] This edition also marked the first time the Games were broadcast on television throughout the world.[7]

Iran-Israel football match

In September 1974, the national teams of Iran and Israel faced each other in a soccer match that most Iranians, especially the lower and middle classes as well as the clergy, saw as nothing less than a war. This competition was held at the height of the Arab-Israeli conflict and for many Iranians, it was a symbol of the struggle against Zionism. The Iranian national team, with the support of its passionate fans, eventually won 2-1 and this victory was celebrated as a national event.[9]
