The 1959 USA–USSR Track and Field Dual Meet was an international track and field competition between the Soviet Union and the United States. The second in a series of meetings between the nations, it was held on July 18–19 in Philadelphia, United States, and finished with Soviet Union beating the United States 175 to 167. The meet marked an unusual head-to-head for the nations during the Cold War. The men's 10,000 meters drew attention as the American competitor Bob Soth collapsed in the heat mid-race – an event which was filmed and presented in the Soviet documentary. Throughout the Cold War there was an intense athletic rivalry between the Soviet bloc and the United States and its allies. Both sides touted sports victories as proof of ideological superiority.
