The 1989 FIFA U-16 World Championship, the third edition of the tournament, was held in the Scottish cities of Glasgow, Edinburgh, Motherwell, Aberdeen, and Dundee between 10 and 24 June 1989. Players born after 1 August 1972 could participate in this tournament. Saudi Arabia won the tournament and became the first Asian team to win a FIFA tournament. As of December 2023, they are the only Asian men's team to win any FIFA tournament.
The winning team was later accused of fielding several over-age players, but no formal investigation was conducted.[1][2]
