WATCH: 'Creativity without organisation is a mess' - Tite

Brazil's boss has some of the world's best footballers at his disposal but won't just let them loose against the Socceroos

Brazil coach Tite insisted he will continue to hold tight to the reins of his team, declaring he prioritises organisation above creativity except in the forward third.

Speaking ahead of the Selecao's friendly against Australia in Melbourne, Tite argued he loves the creativity of his players but won't let that have a negative impact on Brazil's order on the pitch.

Since taking over as Brazil's coach in June 2016, Tite has won nine of 10 matches, ensuring his team became the first to qualify for the 2018 World Cup and leading them from ninth to first in FIFA's rankings.
