The 92.97-metre throw that brought the gold medal to the 27-year-old athlete from a village near Punjab’s Mian Channu as well as his prostration when the victory was finalised has been replayed on every screen in the country hundreds of times. The iconic moment cannot be relived enough.

However, what made the event special was not just Pakistan’s victory but the nature of the event itself. The game was slow and drawn out, each javelin throw left the viewer’s heart in their mouth for a fleeting second before realising the result.

Since the javelin throw finals took place, only brief highlights have been available for viewing on the internet. The shorter versions just do not create the same air of suspense and give Nadeem’s victory its proper context.

But now, 10 days after the event, there is “good news” for Pakistanis wishing to relive the entire final match in all its glory and emotions.
