Today is very special day for Pakistan hockey. On 02 August 1948 Pakistan played their first ever international hockey match. That was not an ordinary match, Pakistan played their first ever hockey match in a big event like London Olympics. You will surprise to hear that Pakistan has won that match against Belgium.
In the 1948 Olympics, Pakistan not only won against Belgium but beats Netherlands, France and Denmark. Pakistani team was undefeatable in group stage. They scored 20 goals and only three goals has been scored against them in four matches.
Although Pakistan lost against England in Semi final, but in first ever Olympics appearance their performance was just brilliant.
