Football at the 1994 Asian Games was held in Hiroshima, Japan from 1 to 16 October 1994. The Asian Football Confederation suggested that only under-23 teams should be entered, which meant that all the players had to be born after 1 January 1971. But this was ignored by all participants except Saudi Arabia.
The women's tournament doubled the Asian qualification of 1995 FIFA Women's World Cup in Sweden, where China and Japan qualified.
