Neymar's goal makes Brazil highest-scoring team in World Cup history

Brazil's alone at the top of the World Cup scoring chart. Something about that just feels right.

By virtue of Neymar's slick second-half goal against Mexico in Monday's last-16 clash, the Selecao became the highest-scoring team in the history of football's marquee tournament, breaking a tie with Germany by moving onto 227 tallies in the competition.

The South American nation is also the gold standard for World Cup titles, of course; a victory for Neymar and Co. in Russia would see Brazil stand atop the football world for the sixth time in the country's illustrious footballing history.
