Match Report
Brazil were unable to mark Neymar's 100th cap with a win as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Senegal in humid conditions in Singapore on Thursday.
Neymar has scored four goals in his past five matches for Paris Saint-Germain but was unable to continue that form with the Selecao, failing to convert any of the chances that came his way.
Brazil moved ahead early at the National Stadium through Roberto Firmino's cool finish, but Sadio Mane won a penalty that Famara Diedhiou dispatched before the break.
Tite's team struggled to work clear openings in the second half and are now winless in three games – their worst run since 2013.
Match Events
9' GOAL! Brazil 1-0 Senegal (Firmino)
The Selecao take the lead as Firmino lifts the ball over Gomis from the right inside channel. Jesus releases the run of his team-mate with a precise offload, and the forward does the rest with a delicate chip over the keeper into the net.
20' NICE TRY! Gueye's shot over the bar
46' Penalty Goal! Brazil 1-1 Senegal (Diedhiou)
Mane charges at the Brazil defence and finds space in between Marquinhos and Dani Alves. He raids into the box, but goes down under pressure from Marquinhos.
Diedhiou takes the responsibility from the spot. He holds his composure to bury his strike with power into the right bottom corner, despite Ederson guessing the correct way. Senegal have their equaliser.
53' CLOSE! Jesus' shot wide out
68' SO CLOSE! Neymar's free kick over the bar
77' CHANCE! Everton's shot wide out
