Olympics is incorrect, it should be both orange and red for northern Ireland as they have the choice to represent team GB or Ireland.
Edit: NI born footballers can also represent Ireland.

Rugby could also be different as the British and Irish lions play as a whole. But for other normal internationals they play separately. Also Welsh teams play in the English football league to make it even more confusing lmao.
