Both the teams had already qualified from this three-team group after their victories over Pakistan.
Uzbekistan, however, topped the group standings on better goal difference than the hosts.
Sardor Rashidov opened Uzbekistan’s account in the 12th minute but Iman Shirazi levelled the scores for Ali Doustimehr’s side in the 70th minute.
The top two teams from each of the eight groups plus the best third placed team from East and West Asia qualify for next year’s finals.
