The '''1967 Asian Champion Club Tournament''' was the first edition of the annual Asian club [[Association football|football]] competition hosted by the [[Asian Football Confederation]].<ref>{{cite web|title=History of the Asian Club Championship|url=http://www.asian-football.com:80/leagues/clubhist.html|website=Asian Football|date=9 April 1997|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/19970409161253/http://www.asian-football.com/leagues/clubhist.html|archive-date=9 April 1997|access-date=26 July 2021|url-status=dead}}</ref> 

Six teams, as their respective country's domestic champions, competed in a knockout tournament to determine the first Asian champion: the Iranian FA did not send a team, while India's representative, Indian Railways, withdrew before the tournament due to excessive travel costs. 

[[Hapoel Tel Aviv F.C.]] from Israel became the inaugural champions of Asia after defeating [[Selangor F.C.|Selangor]] from Malaysia 2–1 in the final at [[Bangkok]], becoming one of only two teams in history to win their continent's main club competition while only playing one match (the other was [[Adelaide City FC|Adelaide City]], who won the [[1987 Oceania Club Championship]]).
