Iran’s team in the ongoing Asian Games in Jakarta keeps adding to its medals to stick to the fifth position on the medals table albeit at a slower rate compared to the opening days of the competition.
Up until Friday, Iran’s gold medal count reached 19. Ehsan Haddadi in athletics and Elyas Ali-Akbar in kurash won the latest gold.
Haddadi took the fourth Asian Games title in discus throw on Thursday and was honored as the most decorated athlete in Iranian discuss history though he could not shake his own record of 67.99 meters he set in the 2010 Guangzhou Games.
