Three days earlier, Natalia Ihnatovych's team had secured a 2:0 victory over the hosts, Armenia, in Group B6. This time, the Ukrainian side faced their peers from Israel.

The first half ended goalless, despite Ukraine managing several shots on target. Early in the second half, the Israeli team took the lead. However, in the 72nd minute, Ukraine equalized after Zechariah received a second yellow card, conceding a penalty converted by Zaborovets. Both teams had opportunities later, but the match ended in a 1:1 draw.

The group's final standings will be determined after the Israel vs. Armenia match on December 2. The draw for Round 2 is scheduled for December 6.

League A

League A will feature 28 teams, including seven teams promoted from League B following round 2 of the 2023/2024 season, which concluded this spring. The teams have been divided into seven groups. The teams within each group will compete at a single venue in a mini-tournament format.

Teams that finish fourth in their groups will continue their season in League B's round 2. Seeding for round 2 will depend on the teams' rankings in the first round. Poland will also participate in the mini-tournament, although they are guaranteed a place in the finals as the host country.

League B

League B will consist of 23 teams, including those relegated from League A in round 2 of the 2023/2024 season and Malta, which returns to the tournament after a one-year absence. Participants will compete for promotion to League A in six groups. Group winners and the best runner-up based on matches against the first and third teams in their groups will move to the higher division.
