Last night, during the first round of qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup, Brazil crushed Bolivia 5-1.
Neymar, who has 125 caps and 78 goals for the national team, scored the fourth goal of the match, making him the all-time leading goal scorer for the Seleção, surpassing the legend Pelé, who had 77 goals.
After missing a penalty in the first half, the Al-Hilal attacking midfielder finally found the back of the net in the second half with a beautiful play initiated by Rodrygo in the 61st minute. Moved to tears and congratulated by his teammates, Neymar didn’t forget to pay tribute to “O Rei” by pointing his fingers towards the sky.
In the other match of the night in South America, Uruguay defeated Chile 3-1 at home, with a brace from De la Cruz and a goal from Valverde. Arturo Vidal scored the final goal of the match for the visitors.
