Ronaldo Bids Farewell To Brazil National Team

Ronaldo’s career with Brazil’s national team came to an emotional end as he was given a send-off during Tuesday’s friendly game against Romania.

The striker made a cameo appearance in the game from the 30th minute until halftime, when he was honored in a ceremony that recognized his contribution to the ‘Selecao’.

Brazil won the match—its last before the Copa America -- 1-0, with Fred scoring in the first half.

The 34-year-old Ronaldo retired in February after an 18-year career. The three-time FIFA Player of the Year represented Brazil in four World Cups—winning two of them—and remains the competition’s all-time leading scorer with 15 goals. Only Pele scored more goals for Brazil than Ronaldo.
