Last I heard the state was sueing people for saying the kiss was non consensual.

Glad to see they just quit. Though admitting it was wrong will never happen, at least the women can play without this person.

Now the coach’s mother is holed up in a church having a hunger strike over this. This story keeps getting crazier

This isn’t his first rodeo, lol. From Wikipedia, I would go to the sources but they’re all in Spanish. Here’s one on the embezzlement for orgies.

Corruption allegations

On 18 April 2022, the Spanish digital newspaper El Confidencial published some leaked documents and audio files that they called Supercopa Files,[20] which included conversations that took place in 2019 between Rubiales and the footballer and businessman Gerard Piqué. The audio files find Rubiales negotiating to pay Piqué commissions related to playing the Supercopa de España in Saudi Arabia.[21] One of the conditions for these commissions was that two of the four participating teams would need to be Barcelona (Piqué’s club at the time) and Real Madrid. Rubiales would also benefit from these commissions due to the variable part of his salary in the federation.[22]

In 2022, Luis Rubiales’ uncle and former chief of staff Juan Rubiales denounced Rubiales to the anti-corruption prosecutor’s office for an alleged emblezzlement of RFEF money, reportedly spent in orgies with a group of friends in a house in Salobreña in 2020.[23] He has also been accused of using federation resources for his personal enjoyment, such as a trip to New York in 2018 accompanied by a Mexican painter.[24] According to Juan Rubiales, Luis Rubiales also devised an espionage scheme against AFE president David Aganzo.[23]

In December 2022, Rubiales filed a lawsuit against Wikipedia demanding that content on the Spanish Wikipedia which might be seen as damaging to his honour be removed.[25] The complaint was filed through the legal department of the RFEF. The lawsuit focuses on Wikipedia content about scandals including negotiations for the sale of the Supercopa de España to Saudi Arabia said to involve commissions and personal benefits, and derogatory WhatsApp postings about teams in the Spanish league.[26]

The only way to tell his intentions is to have a man randomly in kiss him on the lips in celebration and see how he reacts.

You mean so many lives ruined over asshats who think they’re entitled to touch people how they see fit.

I feel sorry for the women in your life because you clearly don’t understand how many are affected by this sort of shit, nor HOW it affects someone mentally.

It’S jUsT a KiSs BrO

Yeah, it’s a kiss today, a wolf whistle tomorrow, and an ass smack the day after… until the dickhead becomes emboldened enough for an unsolicited grope, a squeeze, a “grab her by the pussy” type.

They just want to be left alone instead of being harassed by slimy scumbags like yourself who think it fine to treat women like trophies to collect, because that’s exactly what your sorry little message is telegraphing.

Hilariously, they never mentioned rape. But i understand that it must be hard for your tiny little brain to understand nuance, seeing as you see no issue with someone unconsensually grabbing and kissing someone on the mouth…

Go crawl back into whatever cave you came from, troll.

His behaviour in this instance is indicative of a pattern of abuse and corruption. That’s why there’s this much outrage. You just don’t know what everyone else does.

With positions of great power comes great responsibility. Because when it’s time to send a message to the whole organization and the world that this will not be tolerated, it’s going to be your head that rolls.
