Luis Rubiales guilty of sexually assaulting Jenni Hermoso at World Cup
Briefly

Luis Rubiales, former head of Spain's football federation, was convicted of sexual assault against player Jenni Hermoso for kissing her without consent. He received a fine of €10,800 but avoided prison time. A judge ruled that the kiss had clear sexual connotations and was not typical behavior. Rubiales claimed the kiss was consensual and spontaneous, while Hermoso denied consent, asserting it overshadowed a joyous occasion. Following the incident, Hermoso received widespread support and described the challenges surrounding discussions of sexuality in football, highlighting the stigma she faced.
This action of giving a woman a kiss on the mouth has a clear sexual connotation, and it is not the normal way of greeting people with whom one does not have an emotional relationship.
I never explicitly told my parents that I liked girls. It is something that has always been taboo but there is support from my teammates.
