Brazil forward Neymar said Friday he could retire from international football after his team's penalty shootout defeat to Croatia in the World Cup quarterfinals.

"Honestly, I do not know. I think talking now is bad because of the heat of the moment," the 30-year-old said. "Maybe I'm not thinking straight. To say that this is the end would be rushing myself, but I don't guarantee anything either. Let's see what happens going forward."
