FIFA has provisionally suspended Luis Rubiales, the president of the Spanish football federation (RFEF), from all football-related activities for 90 days following his unsolicited kiss of Jenni Hermoso after the Women's World Cup final.
Despite growing pressure throughout the week, including FIFA opening disciplinary proceedings Thursday, Rubiales refused to resign Friday, saying the kiss was "mutual and with consent."
Pachuca forward Hermoso replied in a statement later in the day, disputing Rubiales' version of events and saying she "felt vulnerable and the victim of aggression, an impulsive, sexist act which was out of place and with no consent on my behalf."

That's how I interpret it. I assume it's the same deal in Brazil.
But the woke ideology is starting to infect the rest of the world.
We should do our homework first. And if he's a creep, then we can criticize him for doing this. Every culture is different.
The best attorneys in the world government and private are selling and buying this as the Joe Biden defense. Why shouldn't other scam artist swamp critters be able to use it too?
OOoppps. Wrong thread. Not sure how that happened.
He’s Spanish after all, cut him some slack. It’s
worth a laugh not a lawsuit.
Nothing imaginary about it.
He hugged or shook hands with other players.
He grabbed this woman’s head with both of his hands and forcefully kissed her on the lips.
Try doing that to me infront of my strapping giant of a husband and you will be eating through a straw for a month. I am his wife and only he is allowed to kiss my lips.
So glad I didn’t choose a beta. Alphas and Sigmas know how to protect their women.
LOL... 100%
I hate woke. I hate “me too”. But I cannot believe all the it’s their culture responses here. Is it their “culture” when Muslims are attacking European women all over the place? If not, why not? Rubiales screwed up. It’s not woke to say that no man gets to just touch & kiss a woman these days. Not long before the kiss, Rubiales was seen on video celebrating the win by making lewd gestures with grabbing his crotch. He was doing this in the Oremiere box several feet away from Spains queen and Princess. Zero class, no restraint. The guy is obviously unsuited to the position he finds himself in. He doesn’t need defending, he needs to face the consequences of his actions.
“Rubiales’ version of events and saying she “felt vulnerable and the victim of aggression, an impulsive, sexist act which was out of place and with no consent on my behalf.”
Sounds like he crossed a line, at least in her mind.
Why do men think it’s appropriate to kiss women like that? She should have slapped him. That is what would have happened 60 years ago.
of course we all would like to see you getting kissed on your lips by your male boss....please submit pictures.
In general, Spanish people aren’t like that, they are not Italians.
I see. I didn’t consider all the facts.
What were the damages? No harm, no foul. Catty sisters telling the woman what to think and do is a tempest in a tea pot.
This would not be an issue if he had kissed Ronaldo on the lips.
That would be inappropriate as I have a real job, not chasing fish eating dykes on lawn.
No, she's not. I'm not down with all the tats, but she isn't fugly.
Not bad. She’s in good shape though so that helps.
You should raise your standards and get out more.
White knighting is useless by the way.
60 years ago, women weren’t pretending to be men.
There wasn’t a dyke soccer tournament.
And yet trannies and Homos can force their sequel ideas and beliefs on anyone they want including children.
