In the match held at the Wunna Theikdi Indoor Stadium Hall B in Nay Pyi Taw, Myanmar, Iran completed its Pool F playoffs campaign in the round of the last eight teams in third place.
Morteza Sharifi led Iran with 16 points including 15 kills. Ali Tabari contributed 12 points through his attack hits.
Kan Ming-Hsiu topscored with 10 points for Chinese Taipei.
Iran has already lost to South Korea and China and defeated Bangladesh in the competition.
“Chinese Taipei is a strong team with experienced players. They have motivation, skills and good reception the other teams can’t underestimate. So, it’s a very difficult job for us to play them. We lost to China on Saturday and we have to beat Chinese Taipei. To do that, we had to analyze Chinese Taipei carefully and we knew what we have to do,” Iran’s head coach Mohammad Vakili said.
Iran will play Thailand on Monday.
