Soccer’s ruling world body FIFA said on Saturday (August 26) it had suspended Spanish federation chief Luis Rubiales from all football-related activities for three months.
That’s while it investigates an incident in which he kissed player Jenni Hermoso on the lips after Spain’s Women’s World Cup victory.
The suspension from national and international activities takes effect immediately from Saturday.
Just 24 hours earlier, Rubiales had been defiant over the kiss, arguing it was consensual and repeatedly saying that he would not resign.
Adding that what he called «false feminists» were, quote, «trying to kill me.»
The kiss been condemned as unwanted by Hermoso, her teammates and the Spanish government.

Peck on the lip of a people your proud of and celebrate with can possibly end your career.🤡🌍
You mob of slanted skewed half-witted body language ignorant imbeciles.
The body language is blindingly obvious that this is 2 people who know each other well, and more importantly are comfortable in each other's company; personal space.
Especially in such Joy of the ultimate success of any known sport. Football ⚽️ is THE SPORT of planet Earth 🌏.
Any body-language Has-Been, could read what is going on.
As, please explain, the length of embrace, the raising of her; Jenny Hermoso, right leg during the embrace, the words spoken before the Kiss and then Jenny's equally spontaneous emotional response of her affectionate pat with both hands, on each side of his torso.
Importantly, Jenny's public response was an unqualified defence of Rubiales and to quote Jenny "it was a total spontaneous mutual gesture. " "The President and I have a great relationship, his behaviour has been outstanding and it was a natural gesture of affection and gratitude." "You cannot go over board with friendship and gratitude, we have won a World Cup…".
She was a right goat .I would have just shook her hand and "well done pet when's the pub open "
Looked like the classic Football ⚽️ head hold peck to me, I’ve watched many many Games.
The fellas do this a million times.
They Won by the way…
leave the man alone.
They suspend him but it took them so long to get the retarded man swimer outa female swiming….
Too much is being made about a simple kiss in excitement when a team wins. I am Gay and see nothing wrong with it.
Is also quoted as saying “bro, she aint even hot!!”
FIFA's evident double standards have raised significant concerns. On one hand, they enthusiastically welcome Qatar as the host of the 2022 World Cup, a nation notorious for its suppression of women's rights. On the other hand, they display rapid condemnation when a simple kiss becomes the subject of scrutiny.
This stark contrast exposes a disconcerting lack of consistency in FIFA's approach. While they choose to overlook the glaring issues of gender oppression in Qatar, they eagerly assume a moral high ground in the case of a minor display of affection.
Such behavior erodes FIFA's credibility and integrity. By failing to address the real and pressing matter of human rights in Qatar, while simultaneously trying to assert moral authority elsewhere, FIFA is exhibiting a form of hypocrisy that cannot be ignored.
In essence, FIFA's actions reveal a disheartening prioritization of convenience over ethics. Their inconsistency stands as a betrayal of their responsibilities and underscores the urgent need for accountability.
Spain ❤️🇪🇸 support all women
Amber Heard is living in Madrid in Spain ❤🇪🇸
Greaseball..
WHY TF DO THE WHOLE SOCCER TEAM GOT STRONG ASS JAW LINES💀
Stupid and over the top..
It was just emotion and happiness, reactions are getting beyond a joke..
It would seem that the Spanish women’s team is just as much of an annoyance as our US women’s team. I have grievance fatigue.
👍👍👍
Didnt suspend Qatar over there oil for votes at the world cup voting
Exactly why men should play no part in women football they could use wet fart against you if you wanted to 😂
I think he has to kiss the boy lips then it was ok
What if it's rhe girl who kissed him?
Thanks for the help and training . Your fired 👍
If the girl in question like it I think is not a problem.
A Sexually Creepy older guy, in a position of power and influence, forces himself on a young professional female athlete. Not the first time, either, It makes me cringe. Not to mention, he ruined the victory celebration while the whole world watched.
But what is a woman, did you just assume their gender, what a bigot you are, I think that you need to be removed from your job and investigated for a hate crime, after all, no-one is above the law, so they keep telling me, I am so horrified, imagine in 2023, a man kissing a woman on the lips, it's an insult to all those who stormed the Normandy beaches, fighting for our freedom, and this is how they repay their sacrifice, public affection between men and women, it's just not natural, it should be a crime.
Thereare more agressions
Good. Dirty pervert
