In the fifth round of Group I of the European World Cup qualifiers, the match Moldova — Israel will take place at Zimbru Stadium in Chișinău. The opponents have crossed paths twice in Southeastern Europe, and in both cases, it was during World Cup qualification. In 2008, the hosts took the lead in the very first minute but lost, playing most of the second half shorthanded, 1-2. In March 2021, the Tricolors again opened the scoring, earned a red card after the break, and suffered another defeat, conceding even more, 1-4. Back then, former Maccabi Tel Aviv forward Eran Zahavi, who retired three months ago, recorded a goal+assist for the Blue and Whites. The MEGOGO media service will broadcast the Moldova — Israel match online on 05.09.2025.

Sergei Cleșcenco’s side in Chișinău lost to Norway, 0-5, and to Estonia, playing with ten men from the 5th minute, 2-3. In June, the national team challenged Italy in Reggio Emilia and produced eighteen shots, 0-2. During this stretch, the squad also played a friendly against Poland in Chorzów, 0-2. Karpaty defender Vladislav Baboglo has once again been called up to the squad. He has nineteen international appearances to his name.

Israel twice defeated Estonia (2-1 in Debrecen and 3-1 in Tallinn after conceding first), and also suffered a loss to Norway in Hungary, 2-4. Hapoel Be’er Sheva midfielder Dan Biton contributed to three scoring plays. After the qualifiers, the Blue and Whites defeated Slovakia in a friendly on neutral ground, 1-0.
