Luis Rubiales claims Jenni Hermoso agreed to World Cup kiss
ai generated text
Luis Rubiales is standing trial for alleged sexual assault after kissing Spanish footballer Jenni Hermoso on the mouth during a medal ceremony in August 2023. He claims that Hermoso gave him explicit consent to kiss her, stating that he asked her permission before the kiss. However, Hermoso has said that she did not have consent to be kissed, and prosecutors are seeking a two-and-a-half year prison sentence for Rubiales. The trial is ongoing, with Rubiales denying the charges and insisting that the kiss was consensual.
Do you usually greet her by kissing her on the lips?
I told him no, that I wasn't going to do anything.
Until today it seems that my life has been on standby, honestly I have not lived freely.
I've kissed a lot of footballers. If one of them had missed a penalty and we had won a World Cup, then it would have been a possibility.
She squeezed me very tightly under my armpits, she lifted me, and when I came down I asked her if I can give you a kiss, and she said 'OK', that's what happened.
I should have acted cold-blooded and played a more institutional role.
You don't win a World Cup every day. Normality cannot be applied to a totally extraordinary event.
This affair has nothing to do with the kiss on the lips of the player by her boss, but with the public emergence of a macho arrogance that is at the heart of male power in Spanish football.
