World Cup Final kiss: Hermoso Rubiales row what's the latest?

A kiss between Spain's football president, Luis Rubiales and Spanish World Cup winner Jenni Hermoso has caused a big argument.

Rubiales kissed Hermoso on the lips during the medal ceremony following Spain's Women's World Cup final win over England in Sydney last Sunday.

Jenni Hermoso says she did not consent to the kiss, which means she didn't give permission or agree to it happening. But the Spanish football federation has accused the player of lying about her version of events and has threatened legal action.

The kiss has resulted in pressure on Luis Rubiales to leave his job, including from the Spanish government, but he has so far refused to resign.

Spain's World Cup winners are now refusing to play while Rubiales stays in his position and their entire coaching staff have quit in protest against the president and his actions.

Fifa, which is football's governing body has suspended Rubiales from all football related activities for 90 days.

What has Luis Rubiales said?

Luis Rubiales has said he will defend himself "so that the truth prevails and complete innocence is proven".

The president of Spanish football, Rubiales apologised for the kiss after the World Cup final, but has faced a lot of pressure to leave his job and was expected to announce his resignation at a meeting on Friday.

Instead he told the meeting, attended by the managers of Spain's men's and women's teams, that he was not going to leave his position. At the time managers of both teams applauded his comments.

"Jenni was the one who lifted me up," he said. "I told her to 'forget about the penalty [that Mary Earps saved]' and I said to her 'a little peck?' and she said 'OK'.

"It was a spontaneous kiss. Mutual, euphoric and consensual. That's the key.

A consensual 'peck' is enough to get me out of here?"

"I will not resign, I will not resign!" he said.

What has Jeni Hermoso said?

In a statement released on Friday night Jenni Hermoso said "in no moment" did she agree to the kiss.

"I felt vulnerable and a victim of an impulse-driven, sexist, out of place act without any consent on my part.

"I want to make it clear that at no time did the conversation to which Mr. Luis Rubiales refers to in his address take place, and, above all, was his kiss ever consensual. I want to reiterate as I did before that I did not like this incident."

In an interview straight after the World Cup win, Hermoso seemingly defended the football president and the kiss, saying: "It was a totally spontaneous mutual gesture because of the immense joy that winning a World Cup brings.

"The president and I have a great relationship, his behaviour with all of us has been outstanding and it was a natural gesture of affection and gratitude."

A statement defending Rubiales' actions was also released by the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) on Hermoso's behalf following the World Cup victory, however the player says she wasn't comfortable commenting on the incident, when asked to "reduce the pressure on the president".

"I was asked to make a joint statement to reduce the pressure on the president, but at that time my mind was only on enjoying the historic achievement together with my teammates.

"That's why I told the RFEF, as well as the media and people close to me, that I didn't want to make any kind of individual or collective statement on this matter.

"Despite my decision, I must say that I have felt under continuous pressure to come out with a statement which could justify Luis Rubiales' actions."

What has the Spanish Football Federation said?

The RFEF provided analysis of four images and said that the feet of Mr President are raised off the ground as a result of the player's action

Spain's football federation said on Saturday it would take legal action to defend its president.

In a statement the federation said it would show there have been lies about what happened by Hermoso or people speaking for her.

"The evidence is conclusive," it said, saying that images showed that Rubiales had been lifted up by Hermoso and that "Mr President has not lied."

The federation also said that, if selected, players have "an obligation" to play for the national team, after 81 female players said they will not represent Spain until Rubiales leaves his position.

What has the reaction been elsewhere?

The kiss between Hermoso and Spain's football president has completely overshadowed the Spanish women's football team and their greatest ever achievement - winning the World Cup.

Spanish players, clubs and organisations have all spoken out against the incident.

Spain's women's coach, Jorge Vilda, who had appeared to support Rubiales and his decision to stay in his job, has since called the kiss 'inappropriate' and 11 of his coaching team have quit in support of Hermoso.

Alexia Putellas, a Ballon d'Or winner and another member of the World Cup-winning team team has said that the kiss was "unacceptable".

Borja Iglesias, who has won two caps for the Spain men's team, said: "I have made the decision not to return to the national team until things change and these types of acts do not go unpunished."

Several Spanish football clubs, including Barcelona, Sevilla, Espanyol and Racing Santander, have also released statements critical of Rubiales.

The Lionesses released a joint statement in support of Hermoso

England's Lionesses, who were defeated by Spain in the World Cup final have also released a joint statement saying:

"Abuse is abuse and we have all seen the truth.

"The behaviour of those who think they are invincible must not be tolerated and people shouldn't need convincing to take action against any form of harassment.

"We all stand with you, Jenni Hermoso and all players of the Spanish team."
