Napoli midfielder Inler: Higuain absence no excuse for Arsenal defeat

Napoli midfielder Gokhan Inler admits they missed Gonzalo Higuain for their Champions League defeat to Arsenal.

Napoli lost Higuain to a last-minute fitness test, as he wasn't even ready for the bench.

"Higuain is important, but we have other players who can also give a great deal," said Inler.

"Their movement is really impressive, as they seemed to be everywhere at once. Arsenal play good football."
