MXNeymar has officially confirmed his retirement from the Brazilian national team after the 2026 World Cup, ending nearly 16 years of service. During this time, he became Brazil's all-time leading scorer but never won a World Cup. He made his debut with the national team on October 10, 2010, and played his last match on July 5, 2026, when Brazil was eliminated in the Round of 16 by Norway (1-2). In that game, Neymar scored his 80th goal for Brazil from a penalty kick, but the team lost due to a goal by Erling Haaland. Despite calls from former players like Ronaldo Nazário to reconsider his decision, Neymar stated that his time with the national team has passed and that he no longer wants to continue.
