Spain Chief Rubiales to Quit Over Unsolicited Kiss of Hermoso - Sources
ESPN ^ | Aug 24, 2023 | Sam Marsden

Spanish football federation (RFEF) president Luis Rubiales plans to resign Friday after FIFA opened disciplinary proceedings against him over his unsolicited kiss of player Jenni Hermoso, sources have confirmed to ESPN's Rodrigo Faez.

Rubiales' position had grown increasingly untenable since his behaviour after Spain won the World Cup by beating England in the final in Sydney this past Sunday.

The kiss forced on the lips of Hermoso has garnered most of the headlines, but he was also seen effusively hugging other Spain players and kissing them on the cheek. Before that, immediately after Spain's victory, he had also grabbed his crotch in a victory gesture with 16-year-old Princess Infanta SofĂ­a and Queen Letizia of Spain standing nearby.

At this time in history, a physical assault is a lesser crime than a kiss.

It’s Europe, I thought even men kissing on the lips was just a friendly greeting over there...

after Spain won the World Cup by beating England in the final

Spain did no such thing. They're calling that 'The World Cup' when it's only 'The Girl Cup'????

It is to laugh. Perhaps to barf.

I hope their Distaff Side (I should TM that!) is more normal than ours.

Sorry, if some random dude grabbed my head and forcefully planted a big fat kiss on me (which this guy did), there would be consequences.

They were not flirting at a bar or getting their drunk on at Spring Break. She is a paid athlete at a sporting event.

Further, no one has the right to kiss my lips except my husband.

This man would not like my husband’s consequences.
