The 2014–15 season was the 67th season of competitive football in Israel, and the 89th season under the Israeli Football Association, established in 1928, during the British Mandate.

The season saw Maccabi Tel Aviv winning all three major trophies, the league, the State Cup and the Toto Cup, the first time all three trophies are won by one club during a season.

At the end of the season, Israel hosted the 2015 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship, the fourth official tournament hosted by Israel (following the 1964 AFC Asian Cup, the 2000 UEFA European Under-16 Championship and the 2013 UEFA European Under-21 Championship), and the first ever women's football tournament was hosted by Israel.

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ a b c Order of legs reversed after original draw, due to the 2014 Israel–Gaza conflict.[1]
  2. ^ The Israel v Wales match was originally to kick off at 20:45 (22:45 UTC+3), but was moved to 18:00 (20:00 UTC+3) as matches cannot kick off later than 22:00 local time according to UEFA's guidelines.[2]
  3. ^ The Israel v Macedonia will be played outside Israel due to the 2014 Israel–Gaza conflict.[3]
