While rivals Argentina struggle to qualify for the 2018 World Cup, Neymar is out there retiring players.
Brazil have already secured their spot for Russia after comfortably topping the South America standings, winning 11 games (so far) and scoring a mighty 38 goals in the process.
Spearheading Tite's side is star man and skipper Neymar. And while Brazil only managed to bag a point at Bolivia - though they were battling 'inhumane' conditions - the Paris Saint-Germain ace continued to produce heroics.
He ran the show including an utterly filthy nutmeg.

Stop that, Neymar.
As previously mentioned, Neymar criticised the playing conditions. Bolivia's Estadio Hernando Siles in La Paz is 11,932 feet above sea level.
"Inhumane to play in such conditions, field, altitude, ball - everything bad," the worlds most expensive player said after the goalless draw via Sky Sports.
Neymar added: "But we were happy for the performance of the team even with these conditions!"
He took to social media to post a photo of himself and his international colleagues taking in oxygen masks for recovery after the final whistle.
Brazil's head coach also said the following about the game: "I have to praise our professionals for all the logistics of the medical department, that gave all the support to make people feel the effects less."
Neymar will be at Russia, will his former club colleague Lionel Messi join him? Well, it doesn't look good.
