The Serbian champions also earned EUR 900,000 - which is what winning a point is worth at this stage of Europe's top club football competition.
Although many thought that Red Star would be "points fodder" in its group, the tram played a solid match against Italy's vice-champions, led this year by coach Carlo Ancelotti.
The Belgraders chose to spend the majority of the game defending - and succeeded in what what obviously the intention: not to lose.
Napoli came across as a powerful, high-class team, but having ball possession, controlling the game, and being a much more dangerous rival wasn't enough to break the Serbian defenses.
In the other Group C match, Liverpool beat PSG 3-2.
Red Star will face PSG on October 3.
