Tehran's women's team defeated India 27-24 on August 24, one day after the Iranian men’s team stunned India by defeating the seven-time champion in the semifinals.
Late on the same day, the Iranian men’s team put an even more convincing end to India's dominance in the sport by clinching a gold medal with a lopsided 26-16 victory over South Korea in the final game of the event.
