Brazil scored twice in stoppage time to move top of Group E, with Neymar netting the final goal.
Neymar, who got involved in discussions with the referee and was awarded a penalty that was rescinded by the video assistant referee, looked emotionally frail throughout, often gesticulating and crashing to the ground when tackled.
Tite said his Neymar's post-game reaction could be down to the huge pressure of leading the five-times world champions.
Brazil's final group game is against Serbia on Thursday.
