The competition took place for the first time in New Zealand, the third time on Oceanian soil after Australia staged the 1981 and 1993 editions. A total of 52 matches were played in seven host cities. During the first meeting of the local organising committee in January 2013, provisional dates of June 19 to July 11 were given towards hosting of games, with a final decision on stadiums and cities originally meant to be taken in February 2013. Two more postponements then followed. France, the 2013 champions, were not be able to defend their title as they failed to reach the final round of the UEFA qualifying tournament. In doing so, they became the fourth consecutive incumbent title holder to fail to qualify for the subsequent tournament. Serbia won the final against Brazil 2 -- 1, becoming the first team representing the country to win a FIFA competition title since their independence from Yugoslavia and the dissolution of Serbia and Montenegro. Yugoslavia previously won the 1987 FIFA World Youth Championship.

Bidding member associations New Zealand Peru Tunisia Wales Venues Auckland, Christchurch, Dunedin, Hamilton, New Plymouth, Wellington and Whangarei were the 7 cities chosen to host the competition.

Draw and schedule The final draw was held on 10 February 2015, 17 : 30 local time, at the SkyCity Grand, Auckland. For the draw, the 24 teams were divided into four seeding pots : Pot 1 : Hosts and continental champions of five confederations ( except OFC ) Pot 2 : Remaining teams from AFC and CAF Pot 3 : Remaining teams from CONCACAF and CONMEBOL Pot 4 : Remaining teams from OFC and UEFA As a basic principle, teams from the same confederation could not be drawn against each other at the group stage. As the CAF U-20 Championship was not completed at the time of the draw, a separate draw took place on 23 March 2015 in Dakar, Senegal, at the tournament 's conclusion to determine the groups where the 2nd, 3rd and 4th placed CAF teams would play in, to ensure there was no manipulation of games in the qualifying tournament ensuring fairness to all qualified teams.

Each participating national association had to submit a final list of 21 players ( three of whom must be goalkeepers ) at least 10 days before the tournament started. These players were shortlisted from a provisional list of 35 players, including a minimum of four goalkeepers. All players must have been born on or after 1 January 1995. If a player listed in the final squad suffered a serious injury up until 24 hours before the kick - off of his team 's first match, he could be replaced by a player from the provisional list with the approval of FIFA 's medical and organising committees. In July 2015, it was reported that the New Zealand squad had included an ineligible player, South African Deklan Wynne not having completed the requisite period of residence in New Zealand. Group stage Stages reached by each team The winners and runners - up of each group and the best four third - placed teams advanced to the round of 16. The rankings of teams in each group were determined as follows : points obtained in all group matches ; goal difference in all group matches ; number of goals scored in all group matches ; If two or more teams were equal on the basis of the above three criteria, their rankings were determined as follows : points obtained in the group matches between the teams concerned ; goal difference in the group matches between the teams concerned ; number of goals scored in the group matches between the teams concerned ; drawing of lots by the FIFA Organising Committee.
