Reply to comment by mcfc_4eva in [OC] Radial bracket - Semifinals | World Cup 2022 by twintig5

These are the FA logos, indeed. I believe it is rarely that national team has it's own logo, besides FA logo. Stars are like an extra, sometimes are there sometimes are not.

Edit: I was using logo pack for FAs. Now as you pointed this out, I went on wiki to check. Among 16 teams in the bracket, exactly 2 of them have different logos compared to the FA logos: England and France. I overlooked this, as this is definitely not a standard. I follow football for a long time, and I was convinced FA logos are "the logos".

I guess I could correct it for the next version, but I don't see it like a big deal.

Anyway, thanks for the heads up.

Forgive my ignorance; the stars I assume represent World Cup championship wins?

Yes, that is correct. And, unlike what was written below your comment, European championships are not counted. Only World Cup.

Then you have Uruguay counting their two Olympic wins as stars.

Edit: lmao can't believe I'm getting downvoted. Uruguay wears 4 stars but only have 2 world cups. The other two would be the Olympics. Do you mfs just blindly believe whoever replies ?

Yeah it's kind of dumb but you're missing a huge part, those are the 1924 and 1928 wins, the first WC was played in 1930 (bc they weren't going to include football as a sport in LA 1932).

Those 2 Olympic golds were won by the Uruguayan senior team vs other World class teams, as opposed to what we have now were the Olympics are mostly a U-23 tournament

Yep. I think continent tournaments count too e.g. euros
