After almost five years and 114 goals for Corinthians, his time with the club came to a close.
He scored his ❤️ only goal of the competition from a penalty in a 2–1 win over Bolivia on 9 July, in the first ❤️ round group stage.
[5] A versatile midfielder, he was capable of playing in several offensive midfield positions, but was usually deployed ❤️ as an attacking midfielder behind the forwards, due to his technique, range of passing, and excellent playmaking skills; he was ❤️ also occasionally used as a second striker or as a winger.
After the conclusion of his footballing career, Neto briefly served ❤️ as the manager of Guarani.
The surgery was a success, and the footballer, who was once plagued by weight problems, has ❤️ since ran in marathons.[8]
