LUCY BRONZE lauded Spain’s “incredibly brave” campaign against Luis Rubiales, who has been found guilty of sexual assault for kissing Jenni Hermoso without consent.
The Audiencia Nacional court in Spain ruled today that forward Hermoso was assaulted by Rubiales while she received her medal following Spain’s World Cup final triumph over England in 2023.
The court said it had imposed an 18-month fine equating to €20 a day on the former president of the Spanish football federation, who it found had kissed Hermoso without her consent during the medal ceremony after Spain won the tournament.
