The men's association football tournament at the 2017 Maccabiah Games was held in Jerusalem, Israel from 5 July to 16 July.

For these Games, the men competed in a 16-team tournament. Preliminary matches commenced on 5 July, the day before the Games' Opening Ceremony. The teams were grouped into four pools of four teams each for a round-robin preliminary round. The top two teams in each pool advanced to an eight-team single-elimination bracket.

The United States won the gold medal after beating Great Britain in the final 3–0 thanks to a hat-trick by Jake Rozhansky, while Israel won the bronze medal after beating Mexico in a Penalty shoot-out.[1]
