Scandal of the kiss: the Rubiales video that revives everything

This Friday, a judge banned Luis Rubiales from coming within 200 meters of Spanish player Jennifer Hermoso.

The “stolen kiss” affair Luis Rubiales saw the president of the RFEF leave office after several weeks of controversy. Almost a month after these incidents and the resulting media storm on the Spanish Federation, the departure of Rubiales still does not seem to be enough for the La Roja players, who have decided to “boycott” the selection since the World Cup won in August.

The strike continues

This Friday, the double Ballon d’Or Alexia Putellas shared a press release signed by 39 Spanish players who still refuse to play again with the selection while the new coach Montse Tomé is supposed to communicate her first list. Among the world champions, only Claudia Zornoza and Athenea del Castillo did not follow the movement, the first mentioned having retired internationally.

For his part, Luis Rubiales was sanctioned again. The investigation is still ongoing, but the judge announced this Friday a restraining order, Rubiales cannot approach Jennifer Hermoso, whom he had kissed, within 200 meters.
