Each group was played in single round-robin format at one of the teams selected as hosts after the draw. The 13 group winners, the 13 runners-up, and the third-placed team with the best record against the first- and second-placed teams in its group advanced to the elite round. Elite round: The 28 teams were drawn into seven groups of four teams. Each group was played in single round-robin format at one of the teams selected as hosts after the draw. The seven group winners qualified for the final tournament. Tiebreakers The teams were ranked according to points (3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss). If two or more teams were equal on points on completion of a mini-tournament, the following tie-breaking criteria were applied, in the order given, to determine the rankings: Higher number of points obtained in the mini-tournament matches played among the teams in question; Superior goal difference resulting from the mini-tournament matches played among the teams in question; Higher number of goals scored in the mini-tournament matches played among the teams in question; If, after having applied criteria 1 to 3, teams still had an equal ranking, criteria 1 to 3 were reapplied exclusively to the mini-tournament matches between the teams in question to determine their final rankings. If this procedure did not lead to a decision, criteria 5 to 9 applied; Superior goal difference in all mini-tournament matches; Higher number of goals scored in all mini-tournament matches; If only two teams had the same number of points, and they were tied according to criteria 1 to 6 after having met in the last round of the mini-tournament, their rankings were determined by a penalty shoot-out (not used if more than two teams had the same number of points, or if their rankings were not relevant for qualification for the next stage). Lower disciplinary points total based only on yellow and red cards received in the mini-tournament matches (red card = 3 points, yellow card = 1 point, expulsion for two yellow cards in one match = 3 points); Drawing of lots. To determine the best third-placed team from the qualifying round, the results against the teams in fourth place were discarded. The following criteria were applied: Higher number of points; Superior goal difference; Higher number of goals scored; Lower disciplinary points total based only on yellow and red cards received (red card = 3 points, yellow card = 1 point, expulsion for two yellow cards in one match = 3 points); Drawing of lots. Qualifying round Draw The draw for the qualifying round was held on 3 December 2014, 09:50 CET (UTC+1), at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.http://www.uefa.com/under19/season=2016/draws/round=2000601/index.html https://web.archive.org/web/20150715050647/http://www.uefa.com/under19/season=2016/draws/round=2000601/index.html dead July 15, 2015 2015/16 qualifying round draw UEFA 3 December 2014https://www.uefa.com/under19/news/0252-0cdbb3e29576-12682b08ca94-1000--2015-16-under-19-qualifying-round-draw-made/ 2015/16 Under-19 qualifying round draw made UEFA 3 December 2014 The teams were seeded according to their coefficient ranking, calculated based on the following:https://www.uefa.com/MultimediaFiles/Download/competitions/Draws/02/17/39/01/2173901_DOWNLOAD.pdf 2015/16 UEFA European Under-17 and Under-19 Championships Qualifying round draws UEFA 30 January 2015https://www.uefa.com/MultimediaFiles/Download/competitions/Draws/02/17/39/02/2173902_DOWNLOAD.pdf UEFA Under-19 National Team Coefficient UEFA 2012 UEFA European Under-19 Championship final tournament and qualifying competition (qualifying round and elite round) 2013 UEFA European Under-19 Championship final tournament and qualifying competition (qualifying round and elite round) 2014 UEFA European Under-19 Championship final tournament and qualifying competition (qualifying round and elite round) Each group contained two teams from Pot A and two teams from Pot B.
