Disgraced former Spanish football federation chief Luis Rubiales will stand trial in February next year for his unsolicited kiss on the lips of Women's World Cup winner Jenni Hermoso, the court overseeing the process said Monday. Rubiales provoked worldwide outrage by kissing Hermoso during the medal ceremony after Spain beat England to win the World Cup in Australia last year. In May, a court had ruled Rubiales should be tried for sexual assault over the kiss, and for the alleged coercion subsequently exerted to make her say that it was consensual, without setting a date. The trial will be held at the Audiencia Nacional, a Madrid court in charge of complex cases, from February 3 to 19, the court said in a statement. Public prosecutors have requested a sentence of two-and-a-half years in prison for Luis Rubiales - one year for sexual assault and 18 months for coercion. The prosecution is also asking for two years' probation once the sentence has been served and for him to pay €50,000 in compensation to the player. Rubiales is also under investigation in a separate alleged corruption case involving his reign at the federation and has denied any wrongdoing.

Fielding is one of the crucial things in the game of cricket. At times, it is not the batting or bowling of a team but the fielding that takes the centre stage in a victory or a defeat. This is a major reason that a good fielder is always valued and appretiated. Hence, spectacular fielding efforts that are recorded on camera rarely go unnoticed. Such is the standard of cricket nowadays that a sensational fielding stuff is nothing new. Despite all of that, a catch taken by Englishman Paul Coughlin has dragged a lot of attention. So much that even England's star all-rounder Ben Stokes could not hold himself from reacting to it.
India's Sumit Nagal continued his ascent in the ATP singles chart, climbing to a career-high ranking of 71 on Monday. His previous best was 77 last week. The Olympic-bound Nagal jumped six places following his runner-up finish at the Perugia ATP Challenger tournament on Sunday. The 26-year-old, who will be the sole Indian in the men's singles event at the Paris Olympics, has so far logged 777 ATP points. A string of impressive results in recent times has not only helped Nagal improve his ranking but also make the cut for singles event at the Paris Games.
