Napoli defeated Bodø/Glimt 4-3 at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on 20 October 2026, in the 2026/27 Champions League. The club described the result as its first Champions League win of the campaign.

The match produced seven goals: Matteo Politano opened the scoring for Napoli, Jens Petter Hauge equalised for the visitors, Scott McTominay scored twice to twice restore Napoli's lead, Napoli added a late fourth, and Sondre Brunstad Fet scored for Bodø/Glimt in stoppage time.

How the seven goals arrived

The scoring sequence, as reported by SSC Napoli and independently described by Football Italia, was:

  • 1-0 Napoli: Matteo Politano scored inside the first minute, after a cross from Leonardo Spinazzola. Football Italia timed the goal at 54 seconds.
  • 1-1: Jens Petter Hauge equalised for Bodø/Glimt in the 27th minute.
  • 2-1 Napoli: Scott McTominay scored before half-time.
  • 2-2: Andreas Helmersen brought Bodø/Glimt level.
  • 3-2 Napoli: McTominay scored again in the second half to restore Napoli's lead.
  • 4-2 Napoli: Napoli's fourth goal arrived late, in the 89th minute phase of the match.
  • 4-3: Sondre Brunstad Fet scored for Bodø/Glimt in stoppage time, after which Napoli held on for the three points.

Napoli therefore led three separate times, and Bodø/Glimt replied after each of the first two Napoli leads before Fet's late goal closed the match at 4-3.

McTominay's brace decided the middle of the match

Politano's goal inside the first minute gave Napoli a 1-0 lead, and Hauge's 27th-minute equaliser made it 1-1. McTominay's first goal put Napoli 2-1 ahead before the interval.

After Helmersen made it 2-2, McTominay scored his second to make it 3-2. The two sources agree that McTominay scored twice, including the goal that restored Napoli's lead at 3-2 in the second half.

Scoring-attribution note for the fourth Napoli goal

Readers should treat the precise attribution of Napoli's late fourth goal with caution. The official Napoli narrative describes Giovane's late action as producing the fourth goal, while the official scorers list records an own goal by Odin Bjørtuft at 89 minutes.

What is consistent across the available evidence is the match effect: Napoli moved from 3-2 to 4-2 late in the game, before Fet's stoppage-time goal made the final score 4-3.
