Odegaard’s Late Goal Earns Arsenal 1-0 Champions League Win at Napoli
Arsenal opened their 2026/27 UEFA Champions League campaign with a hard-fought 1-0 win over Napoli at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium. Martin Odegaard scored the decisive goal in the 75th minute. The Arsenal captain collected Martin Zubimendi’s pass on the edge of the area before driving a left-footed effort in off the post. The Gunners controlled much of the match and registered 13 first-half shots, a club record for an away Champions League fixture. Bukayo Saka, Eberechi Eze and Mikel Merino were among those involved in early chances, while Napoli failed to seriously test Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya. The result gives Arsenal three points and a strong start to the league phase, while Napoli remain without a point.
