Neymar is back, and into the legend 👑 | OneFootball

King is back.

Tonight, one of the great moments of the 2026 World Cup took place.

After three years away, Neymar made his return to the Brazil national team, coming on with twenty minutes left in the match against Scotland, on the occasion of the third and final matchday of the group stage of this 2026 World Cup.

A highly emotional comeback with the Seleção, marked in particular by tears from the former PSG star at the end of the match, but also historic and record-breaking!

With these first minutes played at the 2026 World Cup, Neymar has now featured in four World Cups with Brazil.

Alongside Djalma Santos, Cafu and Pelé, Neymar is only the fourth player to have played in four World Cup editions with the Seleção.

Legend.
