Pakistan's first win in the Olympics came in the 1960 Rome Summer Games. Pakistan secured its first gold medal in field hockey in an underdog storyline victory. The Pakistani hockey team (slideshow), led by captain Abdul Hamid, defeated India 1-0 in the final match. This victory was particularly significant as it ended India's dominance in Olympic field hockey, a streak that had lasted for six consecutive gold medals since 1928, which made this an exciting win.

The news of Pakistan's first Olympic gold medal in field hockey was received with overwhelming joy and pride. The victory was seen as a monumental achievement, not just in the realm of sports but as a symbol of Pakistan's growing stature on the global stage.

Upon the team's return to Pakistan, they were met with a hero's welcome as shown in slideshow, and Pakistani history was made. Other slides are from the match along with an actual pamphlet from the 1960 Olympics written in Arabic, not Urdu- but still cool.

Inspired by this moment, shop the "1960 Olympian" Tee releasing Saturday in a front and black print of our take on the legendary 1960 Olympic Gold Medal win by Pakistan in Rome.
