Neymar announces retirement decision after emotional Brazil defeat to Norway

Neymar has announced his immediate retirement from international football after Brazil’s World Cup dream was shattered by Norway.

The 34-year-old brought the curtain down on his glittering Brazil career just moments after the Selecao crashed to a 2-1 defeat in the last 16, leaving the forward in tears at the final whistle.

Neymar scored a stoppage-time penalty to reduce the deficit, but it proved nothing more than a consolation as Brazil’s campaign came to a painful end.

In an emotional post-match interview, the Brazilian icon confirmed there would be no comeback.
