Neymar is now the seal of Sao Paulo Brazil football. The 31-year-old has surpassed the legendary Pele’s goalscoring record to become Brazil’s all-time best goalscorer. Neymar scored 79 goals in 125 games. He shone with a double goal against Bolivia in the World Cup qualifiers. Brazil won the game 5–1. The record in the number of goals is in the name of the female player Martha. Martha scored 122 goals in 189 games for the Brazil women’s team. Pele played for Brazil from 1957 to 1971 and scored 77 goals in 92 games. “I never thought I would break this record. “I’m not better than Pele or the other players in the team,” Neymar said after the match.
