Embattled Spain soccer prez’s mom locks herself in church for hunger strike after World Cup kiss scandal
The government cannot suspend Rubiales amid a case into his post-World Cup kiss with player Jenni Hermoso after a court rejected the argument that the charges against him were “very serious.” Rubiales has claimed his kiss of Hermoso at the Aug. 20 gold medal ceremony in Sydney, Australia was consensual, which— adding she felt herself to be a victim of the abuse of power and felt pressure from the federation to support Rubiales.
Iceta said that while the government cannot directly suspend Rubiales, as was its intention, it will ask the legal panel to consider suspending him provisionally.“When the eyes of the world were played on our players, his acts caused damage to our sport and our country that is difficult to repair.”
