Qualifying for the 2025 UEFA European Under-19 Futsal Championship in Moldova is under way, with Azerbaijan, Estonia and Germany having booked their progress from the preliminary round.

Germany, who were knocked out unbeaten on debut in the 2023 preliminary round, topped Group A to earn a main round debut. Behind them, Georgia were denied despite not losing themselves, Mose Chikirovi scoring four goals in a last-day 7-7 draw against Lithuania, who had led 5-1 and eventually equalised in the final minute.

In Group B, Azerbaijan finished top to keep up their record of playing in the main round in all four editions. Estonia won Group C to become the first team from their nation to progress through a round of UEFA futsal competition.

Ten teams competed in three one-venue mini-tournaments. The three group winners will join the 25 highest-ranked qualifying hopefuls in the main round between 25 and 30 March, aiming for seven slots alongside hosts Moldova in the finals at Chișinău Arena, scheduled from 28 September to 5 October.
