# Brief Explanations:
To determine which situation is "sportsmanlike", we analyze each option:
- Option A: Using nonstandard footballs to gain an advantage is unsportsmanlike as it's unfair.
- Option B: Shoving an elbow into an opponent's nose is unsportsmanlike (violent and against sportsmanship).
- Option C: Shooting a goal immediately after the goalkeeper is injured is unsportsmanlike (taking advantage of an injury).
- Option D: Shaking hands and congratulating an opponent after losing shows respect and good sportsmanship, aligning with the idea of "sportsmanlike" (fair, respectful behavior in sports).

# Answer:
