Neymar equalled Pele's record of 77 Brazil goals after scoring against Croatia in the World Cup quarter-finals on Friday.
The forward fired home from close range in extra-time to put Brazil ahead and match Pele's tally, achieved between 1957 and 1971.
The quarter-final, however, went to penalties after the match finished 1-1 at the end of extra time.
Bruno Petkovic levelled in the 117th minute in remarkable scenes in Qatar.
