Now that the World Cup is over and the new World Cup Champions Spain, continue to enjoy their well deserved win at the competition, we take a look at the last Miniature Sheet and Sheetlet of stamps issued by South Africa Post paying tribute to the tournament.

In the past month, a transformative wave of patriotism and multiracial unity has enveloped South Africa, most outwardly visible in the deluge of national flags fluttering from cars and buildings.

The world may have fallen for South Africa, but perhaps more importantly, South Africa fell in love with itself.

The team at World Stamp News now eagerly await a new stamp to be issued by Spain to commemorate their first ever win at the 2010 South Africa World Cup.  Congratulations to South Africa for a magnificent World Cup and congratulations to the Winners!
