Luis Rubiales, the president of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), refused to resign on Friday and said he will "fight to the end" after a week of growing pressure following his unsolicited kiss of Spain player Jenni Hermoso. On Saturday, he was provisionally suspended from all football-related activities for 90 days by FIFA.
That Rubiales grabbed Hermoso's head and kissed her lips without her consent has garnered most of the headlines, but he was also seen effusively hugging other members of the Spain national team and kissing them on the cheek. Before that, immediately following Spain's confirmation as World Cup champions, Rubiales was seen grabbing his crotch in a victory gesture, with 16-year-old Infanta Sofia and Queen Letizia of Spain standing nearby.
