NEW DELHI: Neymar made history by surpassing Pele as Brazil's all-time leading scorer, netting two second-half goals in a 5-1 victory over Bolivia during South America's 2026 World Cup qualifiers on Friday.
The 31-year-old forward entered the game level with Pele at 77 goals, and he had a pivotal moment in the 17th minute when Brazil received a penalty. However, his soft spot-kick was saved by Bolivia's goalkeeper, Guillermo Viscarra, leaving the scoreline goalless.
