| Abstract: | The World Cup competition organised by F. I. F. A. is the most significant sporting event after the Olympic Games. In Malta, football is the most popular sport and the World Cup captures the enthusiasm of local football fans who follow the competition with great interest. On the occasion of the 11th edition of the World Cup being held this year in Argentina, the Malta Postal Administration issued this set of three commemorative stamps. The 2c stamp depicts a goalkeeper saving a shot. The 11c stamp shows two players in heading duel and the 15c stamp features a player dribbling past an opponent. |
