After Spain won its first Women’s World Cup championship Sunday, Royal Spanish Football Federation president Luis Rubiales is under fire for kissing forward Jennifer Hermoso on the lips during the team’s award ceremony.
Rubiales was one of a few people on the podium as Spanish players received their gold medals following their 1-0 win over England in Sydney. When Hermoso approached Rubiales to get her medal, Rubiales appeared to excitedly hug and kiss her.
Hermoso shared the honor of being Spain’s top scorer in the World Cup as was one of three players on the team who scored three goals.
