GENEVA (AP) — FIFA suspended Spanish soccer federation president Luis Rubiales on Saturday while its disciplinary committee investigates his conduct at the Women’s World Cup final, which included kissing player Jenni Hermoso on the lips after Spain’s victory.
A slap on the wrist just confirms FIFA’s complicity.
What harsher sanctions within FIFAs power, would you suggest?
Firing him is reasonable, the dude is still insisting it was consual after she has clearly stated it was note. Truly, what investigation needs to occur? It was a live broadcast that very clearly shows him holding her in place, it’s a clear abuse of power.
These 90 days are just a PR move in lieu of actually holding him accountable.
And how do you FIFA is going to sack the president of the Spanish FA?
Who do you think FIFA is? What do you think the Spanish FA is?
I guess assault is legal if you’re rich.
