Flag icons?
I am looking for an adequately reliable source that would provide the declared nationalities of each of the players who played in this match, so I can add the corresponding flag icons to the match details section. I have already tried citing both clubs' websites (which list their first-team rosters for the 19-20 season, including players' nationalities); however, informed me that they do not consider these sources to be 'reliable' when it comes to players' nationalities. Would anything off of TransferMarkt (specifically, this link and this link) &/or Sky Sports (this link and this link) work for providing nationalities in this case? Thanks in advance CitizenKang414 (talk) 23:06, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
 * TransferMarkt is not RS. The Sky Sports link doesn't have their nationalities mentioned at all.  The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!&#33;!&#33;) 23:08, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
 * That's the thing... you can find nationalities on the Sky Sports squad pages, but only if you click on each specific player. Same goes for the club website sources that I tried out earlier. Unless I were to insert the link for literally EVERY SINGLE PLAYER as sources, I am not sure how I would, realistically, cite these in an article. CitizenKang414 (talk) 23:11, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Indeed. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!&#33;!&#33;) 23:16, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

Question. Just curious: Could someone please point out to me the exact section of the guidelines listed at WP:MOSFLAG which indicates that the flags for sporting nationalities should be deleted from final articles if they lack sources? CitizenKang414 (talk) 00:06, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I have seen several instances wherein an editor deletes the players' flag icons and, in the edit summary, simply cites "WP:MOSFLAG" as the reason for deletion without any further explanation. I just wanted to know which specific part of WP:MOSFLAG is being cited here. CitizenKang414 (talk) 00:09, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * The very first paragraph- "Flag icons may be relevant in some subject areas, where the subject actually represents that country or nationality". In a play-off final, nobody is representing any country.--Egghead06 (talk) 05:55, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I suppose that is true, although granted, whether or not a player is "representing"–– or merely should by identified by–– his/her country is debatable. Point taken, though. CitizenKang414 (talk) 18:16, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * In this specific context, it's not relevant. Indeed, it might give the impression that all of them are internationals.  The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!&#33;!&#33;) 19:04, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * @ That's actually a very good point! CitizenKang414 (talk) 22:43, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I know! The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!&#33;!&#33;) 22:44, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

Update – I have re-added the flag icons (1.5 yr later lol), because as per 2021 EFL League One play-off Final and 2021 EFL Championship play-off Final, it would appear that including the flag icons in the player line-ups does not exclude the article from Good Article criteria.
