In his first match in charge, Tite led Brazil to their first ever qualifying win in Quito – thanks to Gabriel Jesus and Neymar.
Neymar opened the scoring with a penalty before Gabriel Jesus, impressive on debut, struck twice late on.
Tite was full of praise for his team as a whole, and thanked Palmeiras coach Cuca for his work with Gabriel Jesus – as well as the Manchester City signing's previous bosses.
"I have to be fair. Cuca, Marcelo [Oliveira] and Oswaldo [de Oliveira] worked with Gabriel. It helped me a lot, I talked to them," he said.
