Brazil crashed out of the football World Cup after a 1:2 defeat to Norway in the round of 16 in East Rutherford near New York. Norway's advance to the quarterfinals was decided by Erling Haaland, who scored both of his team's goals in the second half. teraz.sk ↗
Carlo Ancelotti's Brazilian team had a chance to take the lead in the first half, but Bruno Guimaraes failed to convert a penalty kick. Neymar started the match on the bench and only got on the scoresheet in stoppage time, converting a penalty in the 90th+10th minute. His goal was no longer enough for Brazil to avoid elimination.

After the final whistle, Neymar reportedly cried according to several sources and subsequently announced the end of his international career. The Brazilian forward thus closed out his time with the national team after a match in which Brazil bid farewell to the tournament sooner than expected. Norway, meanwhile, maintained its successful record against Brazil and reached the quarterfinals of the World Cup for the first time. Le Figaro ↗
With his two goals, Haaland established himself as one of the standout figures of the knockout stage and confirmed his status as one of the tournament's top scorers. Norway will continue its bid for a historic result in the next round, while Brazil faces an assessment of its unsuccessful championship and the start of an era without Neymar in the national team. sme.sk ↗
