AI summary

Napoli's European campaign got off to a disappointing start as Arsenal won 1–0 in the League Phase opener at the Maradona. Odegaard's clinical finish proved decisive, with the Norwegian midfielder named Player of the Match after a dominant display that included over 100 passes and four chances created.

The result extends Allegri's side's worst run in the competition since 2005, leaving them pointless after the first round. Napoli must regroup quickly, with Bologna awaiting in Serie A on Sunday before a trip to Villarreal in the next European fixture on 13 October.
