Furious Brazil coach Tite has scotched rumours that Gabriel Jesus played when injured.
Arsenal's striker sustained a knee injury during the defeat to Cameroon last Friday that has not only ended his World Cup - but also put him out for up to three months. Reports in south America have suggested that the Gunners’ hit-man had reported a problem before going out to play.
But in an emotional address, the veteran head coach said: “I don’t like hearing lies out there - these are evil lies. They are put about by people who want to do bad things for other people. At no time do we play for victory by putting players in peril.
