The photographic talent of Domenic Aquilina, one of the Malta Football Association’s photographers, has long been recognised by the association and also endorsed by UEFA for whom he is one of an elite group of fotoreporters.   Aquilina’s work over the years has won acclaim in top European football circles, with his eye for detail in photography being rewarded when he was the recipient of several prizes in international competitions as well as getting special mention in many exhibitions. Only recently a photo he took showing two of the world’s iconic goalkeepers, Iker Casillas of Spain and Italy’s Gianluigi Buffon, in warm sporting embrace at the end of a Champions League match on 5th November 2013 between Real Madrid and Juventus was deemed by UEFA to merit front cover publication in the magazine ‘Status de l’UEFA’ which promotes one of the confederation’s departments’ initiative of ‘Football and Social Responsibility’.   This was yet another occasion when Maltese talent was recognised on the international scene.
