The last sentence here sums it all up nicely. There's a lot of politics in the background with the Spanish women's national team but it strikes me as a totally overblown situation now.
Not sure I'm confortable with situations like this being labelled as sexual assault
I think it would be important to know what Grant Hanley and his team mates think about it….
She has a right to not be happy with it. I do feel it is a bit of a storm in a tea cup though and isn't helped by the fractures already in the women's game in Spain.
Prosecutors looking into sexual assault.
He shouldn't have done it, he was obviously caught up in the moment and they do know each other and given context I don't think he should be lumped with sex offenders.
I do agree it shouldn't be an issue as he should never have done it.
Lets flip the scenerio then.
Spain mens team wins the world cup, Álvaro Morata steps up to the podium and Luis Rubiales places both hands behind the unsuspecting Morata's head, braces him, then plants a 2 second kiss full on the lips. Morata later said to reporters he didn't like it.
Would there be a story.....Of course because its a bit strange, but in that situation, Superstar, multi-millionaire Morata is at least as powerful but in reality more than the president.
Its a story about mis use of power through entitlement
I can’t imagine Norwich winning the FA Cup. So that’s the end of that.
Worth a bet at 200-1?

Probably not as a single peck, even if it's on the lips, which I assume makes it a sexual assault as opposed to a cheek (which is what, just assault?). If that's the case then I should imagine most of us are serial sexual offenders and I don't think that's really the case.
I don’t think there was any bad intentions on his behalf, I think he was over exciting but I also don’t think it was appropriate. Also the way he grabbed the back of her head and pulled her towards him left a lot to be desired, I wouldn’t class it as a peck and I think if anyone did that to someone they would expect a slap back.
I don’t think the whole thing has been handled very well.
For all those saying it’s an overreaction - ask your wife / girlfriend / female friend or family member what their take is on it and whether they would feel violated if it happened to them. Whichever way you look at it - it’s and assault of a sexual nature.
When's international Men's Day, eh!

19th November this year, apparently
Hmmmm (indeed)...
You're coming across as a drunken sex pest here. I'm not suggesting you are but no I never felt the urge to try and snog someone on the off chance.
Obviously your understanding of 'consent' is, it's what you are consenting to do, not the other person (victim)?
You sound like your hero Boris Johnson buddy.
