The president of the Spanish Football Federation, Luis Rubiales, was criticized on Sunday for kissing striker Jenni Hermoso on the mouth following La Roja’s victory once morest England in the World Cup final (1-0) .
Footage shot on the podium at Sydney’s ANZ Stadium clearly shows Rubiales kissing the player on the mouth while holding her head. Taken up by Spanish media, they spread like wildfire on social networks, sparking numerous criticisms of Rubiales.
“Let’s not listen to idiots and stupid people, really”, reacted the president of the federation to the microphone of Cope. “It’s just two friends celebrating. We’re not here for that nonsense. Me, with everything I’ve been through, no more bullshit and no more assholes. Let’s ignore it and enjoy the good stuff and don’t even tell me regarding the fools who can’t see the positive. It’s a harmless thing. If there are fools, let them continue their nonsense. Let’s listen to those who are not idiots. It’s a non-mean thing, if people want to waste their time with it…”
In statements later sent to the press by his federation, Hermoso explained that it was “a totally spontaneous mutual gesture because of the immense joy that comes from winning a World Cup”. president and I have a great relationship, his behavior with all of us was perfect and it was a natural gesture of affection and gratitude,” she added.
The kiss of the president of the federation is part of a heavy context within the Spanish selection. Players have been denouncing for months the methods deemed “dictatorial” of the coach, Jorge Vilda, who enjoys the unwavering support of his president.
Luis Rubiales, in office since 2018, was also accused of having organized orgies with the money of the federation last September.
