MAN OF THE MATCH - Mesut Ozil (Arsenal): At the heart of all of Arsenal's attacking play in a barnstorming first period. Netted his first for the club and teed up the second for Giroud.

FULL-TIME: Arsenal 2-0 Napoli. A first-half masterclass sees the Gunners maintain their perfect start to life in Group F. Ozil with his first for the club and Giroud also on target.

Wilshere drives to the left byline and fizzes a low cross into the area that Giroud is millimetres away from converting.

Ole football from the Gunners now.

Arsenal still threatening a third through Wilshere but the midfielder is eventually crowded out on the edge of the area.

So Rafa Benitez is about to taste defeat for the first time as Napoli boss while Wenger will mark his 17th anniversary as Gunners manager in the best possible way.

ARNSENAL sub: Monreal on for the outstanding Ramsey.

Ramsey about to receive a standing ovation.

Arsenal still stroking the ball around at the back. The Gunners are conserving energy and playing down the clock. Napoli are offering very little to stop them.

Napoli clip a ball in from the left but again it's easy for the Gunners keeper who has had a very quiet night.

LATEST: Dortmund now 3-0 up against Marseille in tonight's other Group F match.

NAPOLI sub: Albiol replaced by Fernandez.

More slick play finds Wilshere on the left but his curling cross arcs too far ahead of Giroud and out of play.

The hosts aren't playing at a high tempo but they are knocking it about with real authority tonight.

STAT: Arsenal have made it past the group stages in the last 10 seasons but have been knocked out at the last 16 stage in the last three campaigns.

Arsenal seemed to have stepped up a gear in the last few minutes. Is a third on the way to seal the night for them?

Another corner to Arsenal is poorly defended by the visitors who eventually manage to clear their lines at the third attempt.

NAPOLI sub: Callejon replaced by Zapata.
