The FIFA Club World Cup, commonly referred to as the Club
World Cup, is an international association football competition organised by the
Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA), the sport's global
governing body. The championship was first contested as the FIFA Club World
Championship in 2000. It was not held between 2001 and 2004. Since 2005, the
competition has been held every year, hosted so far by Brazil,
Japan, the United
Arab Emirates and Morocco.
The current format of the tournament involves seven teams competing for the
title at venues within the host nation over a period of about two weeks; the
winners of that year's AFC Champions League (Asia),
CAF Champions League
(Africa), CONCACAF Champions League (North America), Copa Libertadores (South
America), OFC Champions League (Oceania) and
UEFA Champions League (Europe),
along with the host nation's national champions, participate in a straight
knock-out tournament. The host nation's national champions dispute a play-off
against the Oceania champions, from which the winner joins the champions of
Asia, Africa and North America at the quarter-finals. The quarter-final winners
go on to face the European and South American champions, who enter at the
semi-final stage, for a place in the final.

Taking a deeper look at this topic, one can find that indeed as Mr. Manuel
Gabino mentions, the team flags are displayed during the games, as seen
here.
Esteban Rivera, 04 January 2014
After searching and watching some hours in Youtube videos on the Morocco 2013
FIFA Club World Cup, finally I managed myself to draw the flags used by the
seven teams took part in the event.
All seven emblems where got from FIFA.com. Take into account that the
Guangzhou Evergrande flag is a fan flag, but not the
club's official flag.
Juan Manuel Gabino Villascán, 12 March 2014
For most football clubs there are usually a wide range of unofficial flags
used by supporters, but these official flags are more important.
Elias Granqvist, 12 March 2014
Morocco organized the 2013 edition with the following participating clubs. The
flags are those hoisted in both stadiums at Agadir and Marrakech. The flags were
also carried before each mach when the team jump to the field.
The missing team is Guangzhou Evergrande from China, since I could never see a
reliable image of its flag, the better image shows a red and yellow field with
the team's crest in the middle.
Other flag I have not a good image is that of Team Monterrey, I just can't see
if the badge either bears the stars.

No modification in the 2014 edition regarding that of 2013.

In addition I attach the flags which both teams San Lorenzo and Club Nacional (PAR) were presented during the final match of the 2014 Libertadores Cup, finally won by San Lorenzo.

Some remarks:
- Maybe FIFA does not know about the official flag of
Club Atlético San Lorenzo
and likes to change the official ones, just like that of Real Madrid whose
emblem on the official flag is smaller than that presented by FIFA.
- It is the first time in all club world cup editions in which the team flags
match the image flags in the official TV "ribbons" for scores, line-ups,
standings, statistics, and so.
Juan Manuel Gabino Villascán, 15 December 2014
It is taking place the FIFA Club World Cup in Japan. Unfortunately, in Mexico at least, FOX SPORTS broadcasts the matches only form the referee’s first blow. It is not shown the pre-match team’s parade. In this regard, the flags used by the participating teams are not visible, so I wonder if you mind if are you able to find some photos or videos showing those team flags. The following are the descriptions of the flags I was able to watch.
Barcelona (ESP / UEFA)
![[Barcelona FC]](../images/e/es@fcb16.gif)
image by Juan Manuel Gabino Villascán, 18 December 2015
Barcelona FC used its usual flag seven horizontal stripes, four in blue and three in dark red, the crest is about fifty percent the flag’s height.

images by Juan Manuel Gabino Villascán, 18 December 2015
I may say that Club America (MEX) used a plain yellow flag with the team’s crest. This same flag with the colors reversed in the emblem, was used in the 2006 edition.
River Plate (ARG / CONMEBOL)

Club Atletico River Plate seems to use the flag shown in this page.
Auckland City (NZL / OFC)

(crest from www.vflnet.com)
Auckland City F. C. seems to use the same flag of the former edition in Morocco.
TP Mazembe (COD / CAF)
![[TP Mazembe]](../images/c/cd@tpme15.gif)
image by Juan Manuel Gabino Villascán, 19 December 2015
TP Mazembe uses a very elaborated flag, it is white with six five-pointed
stars, one in the middle near the hoist in silver, the other five aligned
vertically near the fly in black. A brown crocodile biting a football in the
center of the flag surrounded by the team’s name, and foundation year.
Juan Manuel Gabino Villascán, 18 December 2015
Each team's official website, since they also include picture galleries of
its own team participating in this tournament:

For TP Mazembe's flag, I found this
image. (The flag is a horizontal flag, divided into seven equal-sized
horizontal black and white stripes, four black and three white. In the middle,
it bears the team's
new coat of arms. Yet, another flag variant is seen on their official
Facebook profile picture gallery (here).
Here's a
picture of TP Mazembe's flag (variant in plain white colors with team's
alligator and name) from FIFA's official website.
Esteban Rivera, 19 December 2015
Guangzhou Evergrande (CHN / AFC)
Guangzhou Evergrande used a flag in 2013 already shown above, nevertheless, in this 2015 edition it seems the flag changed to a red flag with two horizontal stripes maroon over yellow all through the middle, charged with the team's crest bellow there is the club's full name is Chinese and English (see http://i.imgur.com/3uc95Xz.png).

Sanfrecce Hiroshima (JPN as host)
![[Sanfrecce Hiroshima]](../images/j/jp@sanf.gif)
image by Juan Manuel Gabino Villascán, 18 December 2015
Sanfrecce Hiroshima participated in 2012 as hosting team the flag used them was this which is actually the official club’s flag. The same flag is used in 2015.
It is remarkable that FIFA once again uses the teams flag in the TV “ribbons”
(signals of score, line-ups, and other statistics), and at least for most of the
teams, FIFA uses the official flags.
Juan Manuel Gabino Villascán, 18 December 2015
There is an official FIFA website for this tournament and look for their
picture
gallery and
video gallery and on
Youtube to look for more images.
