Re: Site is not listed in site Collections
Modern Team Sites, Communication sites, Groups, Teams connected sites etc created through the user interface is not visible in the SPO Admin center at the moment. You either have to use PowerShell to get all site collections or wait until end of this year for the new and improved SPO Admin center.

Go to Try Preview....then you can see all sites. If you need to delete any of them setup by staff, just add yourself as admin and edit members and kick them off and then you can delete.

In my experience, the new Groups and Teams, will automatically create hidden "Sites" inside the ROOT site collection. I'm learning fast not to put anything in there (the core site you started with) that I need to keep track of. Having said that, what you are trying to do is incredibly easy once you learn what Teams and Groups are doing and where Microsoft is heading. To get there in either Azure, or Office 365 Admin center, go to "Groups". You will see the named group of the site that was created. You will see people in the Owners and Members Group. Add yourself to the Owners Group, and consider making the current owners as members instead. Then try to navigate to the url you found, and you'll be there. The real culprit here is "how do you prevent people from doing this", and it's vague. You can disable it entirely (I don't recommend it) following the instructions here https://support.office.com/en-us/article/manage-who-can-create-office-365-groups-4c46c8cb-17d0-44b5-9776-005fced8e618 , but I prefer to not fight where Microsoft is heading, and use this https://support.office.com/en-us/article/office-365-groups-naming-policy-6ceca4d3-cad1-4532-9f0f-d469dfbbb552
Teams, as you know now will replace Skype as the collaborative platform, so I believe it's important to hammer this stuff in advance, because if you disable anything, it will harm your Teams rollout. Hope this helps. There's plenty more to it.
