Hakan Çalhanoğlu’s first-half penalty secured a 1-0 win for Inter Milan over Arsenal on Wednesday, extending their unbeaten start in the Champions League and handing the Gunners their first defeat in this year’s competition.
His goal came in first-half stoppage time, putting Inter on 10 points at the halfway stage of the new single-league phase, just two points behind leaders Liverpool.
Despite a spirited performance, Arsenal struggled to break down Inter’s defense and sit 12th in the Champions League standings with 7 points.
Çalhanoğlu’s strike was the first goal Arsenal have conceded in this season’s tournament.
Arsenal had several chances to equalize in the second half, including a close-range shot from Kai Havertz that was denied by a superb save from Inter keeper Yann Sommer.
Inter, however, managed to hold on for the win despite resting several key players, including Nicolo Barella, Federico Dimarco, and Marcus Thuram.
Inter now turn their attention to Serie A leaders Napoli on Sunday, while Arsenal face Chelsea in the Premier League as they look to end a run of three matches without a win.
Arsenal also received a boost with the return of captain Martin Ødegaard, who made a late cameo after recovering from an ankle injury, though the fitness of Declan Rice remains uncertain.
