Anguilla has their football federation logo on the right hand side of the flag (or the AFA has part of the flag as their logo):

The AFA changed their logo in Deember:

The national coat of arms of San Marino came long before ("probably... the fourteenth century") the football logo, and the federation's badge includes a circle of text (Federazione Sammarinise Giuoco Calcio) around that coat of arms.

Many other countries naturally use similar or identical national symbols on both their flags and national team logos. Other examples, among many, include
