Aitana Bonmatí commented on the recent conviction of former Spanish football federation president Luis Rubiales for sexual assault, stating it sets an important precedent for women both in football and other professions. She expressed hope that this case would lead to broader societal changes that respect women. Bonmatí emphasized the team's unity and strength in supporting their fellow player Jenni Hermoso, who was assaulted, and acknowledged the difficulties they faced while advocating for their rights. The discussion also highlighted support from England's coach Sarina Wiegman for Hermoso's courage.
The sentence is correct and it sets a precedent for these situations... I hope this case makes changes in our country, in our football, to respect us better as footballers.
We have supported our teammate and fought hard and it has not been in vain... This happens in other jobs. I hope this helps anyone who is going through these things.
It has been difficult, but this makes us more champions because we didn't win only on the pitch, but also off the pitch.
