Tite, the head coach of Brazil, was not pleased with how Tunisia treated Neymar, alleging that they tried to have him removed from the World Cup.
Dylan Bronn's challenge on Neymar during Brazil's victory over Tunisia has drawn criticism from Tite, who called it "a move to take a player out of the World Cup."
With a convincing 5-1 victory in Paris, the Selecao wrapped up their preparations for Qatar. Neymar scored one of the goals, bringing his total of international goals scored to 75 with his penalty.
However, the Tunisian defender Bronn, who was dismissed, made a strong challenge on the Paris Saint-Germain forward in the 42nd minute.
And while Tite welcomed the competitive nature of the friendly with Jalel Kadri's side, who were unbeaten in seven games, the Brazil coach was far from pleased with the treatment of his talisman.
"We were in an atmosphere where most of the fans were from Tunisia," he said. "At some points, I tried to locate our fans, but they diluted. This has created an atmosphere of competitive play.
"The game on the pitch – we knew it would be competitive, loyal, but I didn't imagine the move that happened to Neymar. It's a move to take a player out of the World Cup.
"We try to make two friendlies with teams that are in the World Cup because the degree of demand is very high, physical, technical and mental. Tunisia had seven games unbeaten.
"The competitive spirit doesn't allow you to play a friendly that doesn't have an emotional clash, so we wanted to prepare, and we were going to take that risk, yes. But it's what we decided."
The five-time world champions head to Qatar later this year on a 15-match unbeaten streak – winning their last seven – ahead of facing Serbia, Switzerland and Cameroon in Group G.
