The Japanese team ended a 43-year-old Iranian dream after denying it the # 4 Asian Cup in football for the fourth time in its history, beating 3-0 in the first semifinal at Hazza Stadium Bin Zayed in Al Ain.
Japan reached the final for the fifth time after its peak in 1992, 2000, 2004 and 2011, while the Iranian dream reached the final after the titles of 1968, 1972 and 1976.
Japan's Yoya Osako (56, 67) and Janki Haraguchi (90 + 1) scored goals for Japan, which will meet in the UAE and Qatar final on Tuesday in Abu Dhabi.
