Today, December 2, Round 1 Group B6 for UEFA EURO 2025 (WU-19) concluded in Yerevan with a match between Israel and Armenia.
The Ukraine WU-19 team had previously defeated hosts Armenia (2:0) and then drew with Israel (1:1). The final group standings depended on the direct encounter between Ukraine’s rivals.
Israel defeated Armenia 2:0, leaving Ukraine and Israel with identical records — four points each and a goal difference of 3:1. The tie-break came down to disciplinary points, with the Blue and Yellows having just two points compared to Israel's ten.
