The 2025 FIFA U-20 World Cup was the 24th edition of the FIFA U-20 World Cup, the biennial international men's youth football championship contested by the under-20 national teams of the member associations of FIFA, since its inception in 1977 as the FIFA World Youth Championship. It was held in Chile from 27 September to 19 October 2025.[1][2]
Reigning champions Uruguay could not defend their title as they finished fifth in the 2025 South American U-20 Championship. In doing so, they became the eighth consecutive title holders to fail to qualify for the subsequent tournament.
Morocco defeated Argentina to win their first FIFA tournament title. This was the fourth consecutive U-20 World Cup to produce a new winning team, dating back to 2017.
Host selection
Chile were announced as the 2025 U-20 World Cup hosts following the FIFA Council meeting on 17 December 2023 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.[1] It is believed the decision was made as a compensation for Chile losing hosting rights for the 2030 FIFA World Cup to Morocco, Portugal and Spain, as Chile was the only nation in the four-nation bid of Uruguay, Argentina and Paraguay not included in the eventual outcome for the opening matches.[3][4]
This was the second time that Chile hosted the tournament, after doing so in 1987[5]. Only Australia (1981, 1993) and Argentina (2001, 2023) had also hosted the tournament multiple times.
Venues
On 18 December 2023, Pablo Milad, president of the Football Federation of Chile, revealed a preliminary list with 12 stadia in 10 cities. Milad also announced that between four and six stadia would be chosen by FIFA for the final tournament.[6][7]
On 26 May 2025, four Central cities of Santiago, Rancagua, Valparaíso and Talca were announced chosen to host the competition.[8]

Teams
Qualification
A total of 24 teams qualified for the final tournament. In addition to Chile, who qualified automatically as the hosts, 23 other teams qualified through six separate continental competitions. The slot allocation remained unchanged from the previous editions and was confirmed by the FIFA Council on the same day the host country was announced.[1]

- CAF (Africa): 4
- CONCACAF (North America, Central America and the Caribbean): 4
- CONMEBOL (South America): 5 (including the hosts Chile)
- OFC (Oceania): 2
- UEFA (Europe): 5
New Caledonia made their debut in the tournament.[9][10] Of the returnees, Morocco made a return after last qualifying in 2005. Australia, Chile, Cuba, Egypt, Paraguay and Spain made a return after last qualifying in 2013. Saudi Arabia, Mexico, Panama, Norway, South Africa and Ukraine made a return from 2019.
Reigning champions Uruguay failed to qualify for the first time since 2005, while Honduras and Senegal failed to qualify after appearing in the previous four consecutive editions. Israel failed to qualify after finishing third in 2023. Dominican Republic, Ecuador, England, Fiji, the Gambia, Guatemala, Iraq, Slovakia, Tunisia, and Uzbekistan failed to qualify after appearing in 2023.

Squads

Draw
The draw took place at Chilevisión's Machasa studios in Santiago on 29 May 2025.[11]
The 24 teams were organised into four pots of six teams based on a performance ranking system, in order to be subsequently drawn into six groups of four teams. The hosts Chile were automatically seeded to Pot 1 and assigned into the first position of Group A, while the remaining teams were seeded into pots based on their results in the last five FIFA U-20 World Cups (with more recent tournaments weighted more heavily), and with five bonus points added to each of the six continental champions from the qualifying tournaments, as follows:[12]

Knockout stage
In the knockout stage, if a match was level at the end of 90 minutes of normal playing time, extra time was played (two periods of 15 minutes each). If the score was still tied after extra time, the match was decided by a penalty shoot-out.[17]
In the round of 16, the four third-placed teams were matched with the winners of groups A, B, C, and D. The specific match-ups involving the third-placed teams depended on which four third-placed teams qualified for the round of 16:[17]
