Luis Rubiales Takes Long-Awaited Stand At Forced Kiss Trial
Spain's former football federation chief Luis Rubiales gives his highly anticipated version of events on Tuesday in the trial over his forced kiss on Jenni Hermoso that sparked global outrage. The case has riveted the country since opening on February 3 and has turned Hermoso into an icon of the fight against macho culture and sexism in sport. Rubiales was forced to resign in disgrace in 2023 after kissing Hermoso on the lips following Spain's triumph at that year's Women's World Cup in Australia.
