Brazilian football star Neymar has announced his retirement from international football following Brazil's 2-1 defeat to Norway in the Round of 16 at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
The 34-year-old forward confirmed his decision after the match, saying his journey with the national team had come to an end. Neymar made an emotional appearance as a second-half substitute, scoring Brazil's only goal from the penalty spot before breaking down in tears at the final whistle.
Neymar made his debut for Brazil in August 2010 and leaves as the country's all-time leading goalscorer. However, recurring injuries limited his role at the 2026 World Cup, where he featured in only two matches.
Brazil captain Marquinhos urged fans to support the next generation of players as the five-time world champions begin a new era without Neymar.
