بعد تبخر حلم المونديال.. نيمار يعتزل اللعب دولياً

The Brazilian star Neymar da Silva announced his retirement from international play after his national team was eliminated from the 2026 World Cup in the Round of 16, losing to Norway by two goals to one.

The two goals for the Norwegian team were scored by Erling Haaland in the 79th and 90th minutes, while Neymar scored Brazil's only goal in the 90+10 minute, and time did not allow the "Seleção" to attempt to equalize.

Neymar sheds tears

After the match ended, Neymar broke down in tears as his last chance to win the World Cup evaporated, and his teammates tried to console him.

I tried.. it's over

Neymar said in press statements after the match: "I tried, I tried, now it's over, I started here and I will end here."

Neymar missed the first two matches in the group stage due to injury and appeared in the last quarter-hour against Scotland in the group stage finale, but did not participate against Japan in the Round of 32.

The all-time top scorer for the "Seleção"

Neymar is the all-time top scorer for the Brazilian national team with 80 goals and has participated in 130 international matches since his debut with the senior team in 2010.
