He made his senior debut for Brazil at this same stadium in August 2010 against the United States, where he also scored his first international goal. Sixteen years later, he concluded his international career on the same field.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Neymar retires as Brazil&#8217;s all-time leading scorer with 80 goals, surpassing the iconic Pel\u00e9 by three goals.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Though he did not fulfill his ambition of winning the FIFA World Cup, Neymar&#8217;s status as one of Brazil&#8217;s greatest players is well established, closing a significant chapter in the nation\u2019s football narrative.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"wedod-1724410689\" class=\"wedod-after-content wedod-entity-placement\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-1458300956780583\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1458300956780583\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Softfootball reports that Neymar, the renowned Brazilian footballer, has formally declared his retirement from international play, marking the<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":34200,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-34199","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sports"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Neymar Retires from National Team: A New Chapter<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Neymar retires from international football, marking the end of an era.
