During the Olympics, the only two competitors in the 400 meter dash are the American and Soviet runner. The race happens, and the American handily wins.
The headline of the New York Times the next day: "America beats Soviets in 400 meter dash, wins gold"
The headline of Pravda the next day: "Soviet sprinter wins silver medal, America places second-to-last"
Some variants have this be a footrace between specific American & Soviet athletes or political leaders.
