England women's soccer manager, Sarina Wiegman, said the culture within the sport must change after the former head of the Football Federation of Spain, Luis Rubiales, was declared guilty of sexual aggression for kissing Jenni Hermoso without her Consent after the 2023 World Cup final.
On Thursday, Rubiales received the Superior Court of Spain to pay a fine of 10,800 euros ($ 11,300) for kissing beautiful lips in front of a global television audience after Spain beat England to win the World Cup.
The incident during the awards ceremony in Sydney caused a national fury about sexism in Spain, eclipssing the success of the team's World Cup, and sent shock waves through the women's game.
“We have to talk about this again is good because society changes and I am with Spanish players,” Wiegman told ITV on Friday, moments after the 1-1 League draw of England with Portugal.
'They have a lot of courage to do this and make a change, but more changes need to be made. They are still in it and it is really unfortunate that we cannot talk … well, we are talking about football, but we also have to talk about this, “added the Dutch woman, who dedicated her 2023 UEFA Women's Trainer of UEFA of the UEFA of El Award of the Year to the Spanish women's team.
The ruling also prevents Rubiales from going 200 meters and forbidden to communicate with her for a year. You will also have to pay beautiful 3,000 euros as compensation.
