During the final matches, Iranian wrestlers sealed a 5-3 victory against their American guests. State TV broadcast the matches live.
The US wrestling team reached the final matches after defeating Russia, Georgia and Azerbaijan in group A of the competition. Iran defeated Turkey, India and Mongolia in group B during over two days to reach the final.
Earlier in February, Iran reversed its position and allowed US wrestlers to participate in the competition following an earlier US travel ban, now frozen, by President Donald Trump on nationals from seven Muslim-majority countries, including Iran.
