Italy defeated Uganda 192 to 79 in Group B of the Champions League Call tournament on 11 August 2026, extending their perfect start to the competition. The home side moved to 13 games unbeaten with twelve wins from twelve matches, while Uganda's record slipped to ten victories and three defeats from thirteen fixtures. The result keeps Italy clear at the top of the table on twenty-six points, five ahead of their opponents who sit second.
Italy have been running hot recently, having beaten Bahrain 200-132 on 9 August before this fixture. Uganda arrived with momentum of their own, most notably a 213-100 win over Hong Kong on 6 August and a 142-71 victory against Tanzania the day after. Both sides had shown they could produce high-scoring performances, though the gap between them was starkly revealed here.
The final margin of 113 points speaks for itself. Italy's attack was efficient while their defence was tight, giving nothing away to Uganda's attempts to build rhythm. The hosts have hit a wall in terms of resistance in this group, and Uganda are now looking at catching up after falling further behind.
Recent form tells a story of contrasting trajectories. Italy lost narrowly to England 178-202 on 16 February and had a scare against Nepal, winning 124-123 on 12 February, but have since found consistency. Uganda's defeats have come against stronger opposition in their group, and this result adds to their tally of three losses.
What matters now is the standings. Italy remain on top with a two-point cushion over their nearest rivals in the group, though Uganda's position means they still have games to play for positioning. The gap in points will only widen if Italy continue this run, and Uganda will need to find their level quickly.
