2Neymar | 77 goals
Some fans feel Neymar is among the top five players in the world and the skilful attacker certainly makes scoring goals look easy.
The Paris Saint-Germain forward made his Brazil debut in 2010, scoring one goal in their 2-0 win against the United States of America, and seems destined to become the Selecao's all-time top scorer.
He has scored 77 goals in 124 matches for Brazil so far.

3Ronaldo | 62 goals
Arguably the greatest striker ever produced by Brazil, Ronaldo took the beautiful game to a whole new level in the 1990s and early 2000s.
The centre-forward made his debut for Brazil in 1994 against arch-rivals Argentina at the tender age of 17 and his performances over the next few games saw him make the squad for the 1994 World Cup, even if he didn't actually get any playing time.
Ronaldo was part of two World Cup wins for Brazil, with the 2002 edition the crown on his career as he scored eight goals to win the Golden Boot.
Overall, he scored a total of 62 goals in 99 international games across all competitions for his country.
Simply put, on his day, there was no striker better than Ronaldo in his prime.
