"Controversy Surrounding Spain's Soccer Federation Chief Sparks Demands for Resignation"

Spain's soccer federation, the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), has threatened legal action to defend its president, Luis Rubiales, who is facing criticism for kissing player Jenni Hermoso on the lips after Spain's Women's World Cup victory. Rubiales has refused to resign and called the kiss "spontaneous, mutual, euphoric, and consensual," while Hermoso has stated that she did not consent to the kiss and felt like a victim of aggression. The Spanish government has denounced Rubiales' actions and is seeking to get him suspended. The Spain women's team has also announced a boycott of internationals until Rubiales steps down.
