Neymar Equals Romario in Brazil’s all-time scoring ranks

Brazil superstar Neymar has climbed in his country’s all-time goalscoring ranks, surpassing the likes of Ronaldinho and Rivaldo, to emerge joint third-highest scorer of all time with Selecao icon Romario. The 26-year-old PSG forward recently returned from injury to net twice in as many games to take his tally to 55 for his country. There had been doubts over the player’s chances of going to Russia when he was injured in March while playing for Paris Saint-Germain, but Neymar appears to be getting back to his best after months of rehabilitation and recovery, with his goal for Brazil in their 3-0 friendly win over Austria on Sunday, grabbing all the headlines.
