Jenni Hermoso has confirmed she did not consent to be kissed by Spanish football federation president Luis Rubiales - as 56 Spain players confirm they will not play for the national team until he is removed from his post.

Rubiales has refused to resign after kissing forward Hermoso following Spain's Women's World Cup final win over England.

The Spanish government started legal proceedings seeking to suspend the 46-year-old, while Fifa has also launched disciplinary proceedings.

Maybe a late VAR decision. But one worth waiting for.

a statement released by players' union Futpro included quotes from Hermoso, which read: "I want to clarify, that at no time did I consent to the kiss. I don't tolerate that my word is questioned, much less that words are invented that I haven't said."

I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt at first.

However with the player saying that she wasn't comfortable with the kiss, it makes it hard to justify keeping him in his position imo.

And personally I do find the crotch incident bizarre.

In isolation I'd give him the benefit of the doubt and say maybe he needed a quick re-arrange.

But with everything else? Nah.

You're probably right tbf.

It's like you've said, it's when it's added on top of other things is where it doesn't look good for him.

The Spanish football federation says it will take legal action over Jenni Hermoso's comments about its president Luis Rubiales.

Rubiales has refused to resign after kissing forward Hermoso on the lips following Spain's Women's World Cup final win over England in Sydney.

Hermoso said on Friday she did not consent, but the federation has questioned her version of events.

"The evidence is conclusive," it said. "Mr President has not lied."

In a statement by players' union Futpro, which is representing Hermoso, she is quoted as saying "in no case did I seek to raise (lift) the president" while they embraced on the podium.

The Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) said: "The RFEF and Mr President will demonstrate each of the lies that are spread either by someone on behalf of the player or, if applicable, by the player herself.

"The RFEF and the President, given the seriousness of the content of the press release from the Futpro union, will initiate the corresponding legal actions."

I know nothing about this incident.. did he kiss them all on the lips or just one girl ?

Why did he choose her ??


Has he got a smarmy ( Trump-like reputation) ?


Why are the Spanish ladies on dispute with the Spanish authorities ?

And all of this has completely overshadowed the Spain victory, and the tournament as a whole.
