Controversial World Cup Kiss was 'Affectionate Mutual Gesture', Spanish Coach Says
Sep 2 2023 Share

Luis Rubiales, the president of the Spanish football federation, is under fire for forcibly kissing player Jennifer Hermoso after Spain’s victory over England.

Rubiales claims it was a “mutual and affectionate gesture,” but disciplinary proceedings have been initiated against him. FIFA imposed a 90-day suspension and ordered him not to contact Hermoso.

Rubiales argued that Hermoso initiated the kiss, lifting him up during the presentation. However, new footage contradicts this, showing Rubiales jumping into the player’s arms. Amidst the controversy, the Spanish coach has issued a statement expressing regret for his actions but denying any aggression, demanding a “fair trial in the name of feminism.”

Hermoso has maintained that the kiss was non-consensual, describing it as “sexist” and “out of place.” This scandal has ignited a heated debate, with Rubiales vowing to defend himself, insisting it’s not about gender but about revealing the truth. As the scandal unfolds, Spanish football remains in turmoil.

What do you make of this?

“So, should you come to Malta in 2023? My answer is no,” the YouTuber says as he strolls across Malta’s Qawra-Bugibba area.”I think this is the place in Europe with the biggest number of cranes and construction sites per capita”, Alex says as he walks across the Bugibba promenade, before he goess on to shine a light on the fact that “half of the roads are closed.”

“If you plan on moving and have an option for some first-world countries, take the first world country option,” he says, going on to say that Malta is a promise land for people coming from poor countries. “The salaries here are not keeping up with the prices”, the YouTuber says before comparing Malta with places like Tenerife.
