Arsenal suffers its first Champions League defeat as Inter Milan snaps the Gunners unbeaten streak.
The Gunners were hoping to regain their confidence after losing to Newcastle in the Premier League over the weekend.
Arsenal, however, failed to capitalise on their dominance, losing 1-0 to Inter Milan.
Matteo Darmian started for Inter, although Henrikh Mkhitaryan, a former Manchester United player, is among the replacements.
Martin Odegaard returned from injury tonight, starting on the bench after being sidelined for four weeks.
Inter Milan started the game well, hitting the woodwork within the first five minutes.
Arsenal later regained possession but did not generate anything. However, it was not until the first half injury time when the home team took the lead.
Inter received a free kick in the Arsenal half, and the ball was blasted into the box by Piotr Zielinski, who flicked it off Mikel Merino’s arm, prompting the referee to signal to the spot.
David Raya misfired, and Hakan Calhanoglu blasted the ball down the middle to put Inter up.
Arsenal maintained their dominant first-half performance but were denied any chance to get back into the game.
Arsenal’s perfect streak was halted in a 1-0 defeat, with the Gunners losing their first goal of the competition.
