The Isle of Man women's team secured a 56-52 victory away to Greece in the Women's Continental Cup on 27 August 2026. The result keeps the visitors top of the table with six points from three matches, while Greece remain winless at the bottom with zero points from their opening three fixtures.
By then, the match had already shaped up as a contest between contrasting form. Greece had dropped all three of their games, including narrow losses to Denmark in their most recent outings. The Isle of Man, meanwhile, carried momentum from their 128-127 win over Romania the day before.
The final scoreline tells you the game was decided by fine margins. And here's the thing — five-point victories don't happen without tension. The hosts pushed hard but couldn't find a way back into it when the visitors pulled away at the crucial moment.
What this means for the standings is straightforward. The Isle of Man extend their perfect start with a third consecutive win. Greece's run of defeats continues, though the margin of loss is closer than their heavy 67-138 defeat to Denmark back in May might suggest.
