Challenge Overview

#

The objective was to gather specific information from a FIFA player card to construct the flag. Required details:

• Player Name
• Rating
• PlayStyle+
• Team
• National Team Number

Solution Process

#

Step 1: Initial Card Analysis

#

The provided card was a special green card with the following characteristics:

• Shooting: 99
• League: Bundesliga
• Position: CDM (Central Defensive Midfielder)

Step 2: Card Type Identification

#

The first critical step was identifying the card’s promo type. To accomplish this, I visited Futbin, a comprehensive FIFA/FC card database with extensive filtering capabilities.

I systematically browsed through different special card designs across recent titles, starting from FC 26 and working backwards. After comparing multiple card styles, I identified the matching design in FC 24 as the Winter Wildcards promo.

Step 3: Filtering and Search

#

With the card promo identified, I used Futbin’s filtering system:

• Promo: Winter Wildcards
• League: Bundesliga
• Position: CDM

This filtering dramatically narrowed the search results to just two cards.

Step 4: Player Confirmation

#

A quick comparison between the two remaining cards revealed that Ellyes Skhiri was the only player with 99 Shooting, confirming the card’s identity.

Step 5: Gathering Required Information

#

With the player and promo confirmed, I collected the remaining required details through Futbin and verification searches:

Flag Construction

Using the gathered information, the flag was constructed as follows:
