On October 6, 2005, Marcos announced his retirement from international football, but continued to play for Palmeiras, the only team he has played for in his career. He made one appearance in the tournament, starting in a 2–2 draw against Japan during the group stage, which turned out to be his last appearance for Brazil. In 2005, he was called again and included in the squad for the 2005 FIFA Confederations Cup. He made only four more international appearances after the World Cup, and was left out of Brazil's squad for 2003 FIFA Confederations Cup and Copa América 2004.

However, after a series of injuries that affected his career, Marcos lost his place in the team after the World Cup. He had four clean sheets, conceded only four goals in seven matches, and was elected the third-best goalkeeper in the tournament, as Brazil won the World Cup for the record fifth time. He started every game in the tournament and played every minute of Brazil's matches in the tournament. He was subsequently included in Brazil's squad for 2002 FIFA World Cup as the first-choice goalkeeper, replacing Taffarel.

He became Brazil's starting goalkeeper in Copa América 2001 and retained that position after the tournament, relegating Dida to the bench. He remained as Brazil's backup goalkeeper as Dida and Rogério Ceni were preferred ahead of him. Previously, he was included in Brazil's squad for Copa América 19 FIFA Confederations Cup as a second-choice goalkeeper. Marcos debuted for Brazil in a match against Spain on November 13, 1999. Marcos is one of the greatest idols of Palmeiras' fans, alongside Ademir da Guia and Djalma Santos. FIFA and UEFA have today decided together that all Russian teams, whether national representative teams or club teams, shall be suspended from participation in both FIFA and UEFA competitions. On January 4, 2012, at the age of 38, Marcos announced his retirement from football, due to his advanced age and the many injuries that marked his career. On the front, all the titles that he has won along with Palmeiras and Brazil's national team are printed. The number 400 was printed on the back, with his name and the writings "O melhor goleiro do Brasil" (The best goalkeeper in Brazil). He was given a special shirt for playing his 400th match.

Marcos played his 400th match for Palmeiras on Septemin a Campeonato Brasileiro Série A match between his club and Vasco. In 2008 he helped Palmeiras win the Campeonato Paulista 2008. When he eventually surfaced he stated that he would rather play the Campeonato Brasileiro Série B (second division) with Palmeiras than play in any European team just for the money. In 2002 after a fantastic World Cup participation with Brazil's team he received a proposal from the English team Arsenal and actually went to London to sign but then disappeared leaving Arsenal and fellow Brazilian, Edu, wondering where he had gone, therefore the deal never happened. In 2000 once again he faced Corinthians in the Libertadores, this time at the semi-final level, and again eliminated the rivals in the penalty shoot-out. With outstanding performances in the Copa Libertadores 1999 he helped the team conquer the title, after beating Palmeiras' arch rivals Corinthians in the penalty shoot-outs in the quarter-final.

Views differ as to the cup's prestige: it struggles to attract interest in most of Europe, and is the object of heated debate in South America. It was not held from 2001 to 2004 due to a combination of factors, most importantly the collapse of FIFA's marketing partner International Sport and Leisure (ISL), but since 2005 it has been held every year, and has been hosted by Brazil, Japan, China, Spain, Argentina, Morroco, the United Arab Emirates, USA and Qatar. The competition was first contested in 2000 as the FIFA Club World Championship.
