Algeria Women secured a 3:2 victory over Uganda in the African Championship on Tuesday, 2 September 2026. The result leaves both sides level on points in the standings after three matches each.
Before kickoff, the two teams sat identical in second place, each with two wins, one defeat, and six points. Algeria had dropped 1:3 to Kenya the previous day, while Uganda had lost 0:3 to Cameroon on the same date.
Both sides had built their records around dominant performances — Algeria had thrashed DR Congo and Burundi 3:0, while Uganda had similarly beaten DR Congo and Burkina-Faso by the same margin. Yet against each other, the match proved tighter than their recent results suggested.
The 3:2 scoreline means neither team can claim clear advantage in the table. With one point separating them from leaders yet to be determined, both sides still have opportunities to shift the balance.
Algeria's victory extends their winning momentum after last week's setbacks, while Uganda will need to regroup quickly. The standings remain fluid, and this result keeps both teams firmly in contention.
