Well, who would have thought that there would be cameras present?
At the world cup? Preposterous!

That’s amazing, thanks. It’s been hard to track down the details due to the language barrier. Very much appreciated.
Rubiales has certainly a lot to say about the rfef leaders, otherwise they wouldn’t stand behind him like they do.
Vilda (the team manager) is despised by the players, who have been trying to get him ousted. Rubiales is responsible for his still being in post. I would guess most of them are extremely reliant on his patronage. He wasn’t even that good a footballer in his day. It’s just a boys club where he uses RFEF money to throw orgies and they like beng protected from any fallout from their ridiculous machismo, I guess.
But the RFEF are starting to turn on him, at regional level at least: Luis Rubiales: Regional Spanish FA bosses call on president to resign over kiss.
Awful for Hermoso but ultimately good for Spanish football, I think. It’s gone beyond ridiculous and the inevitable fall will be glorious.
Maybe they have similar, entitled, macho opinions.
As if the original viral footage wasn’t enough, but glad there are more angles to remove all doubt.
Pretty insane that his mother is literally willing to die for “justice” when it’s dead obvious he initiated everything. Some people are blind to the truth when it involves family.
That website’s cookies settings are awful - anyone got a link to the video itself?
It’s a Twitter link in the article. Hence not linking to it direct.
Ah ok, thanks.
This just puts me into a captcha loop … Am I a robot?
Honestly, seeing the video makes it seem so much more harmless.
I guess it’s because we can see how quickly the exchange happened, whereas a still makes it look like it’s going on forever.
You appear to be missing some context.
What is it?
Explained in some detail in the linked article.
Can you quote what you’re referring to so I know exactly what you’re talking about?
You’re perfectly capable of reading it. Are you just pretending to not understand?
The RFEF released a series of stills purporting to prove that Hermoso had lifted Rubiales in the air shortly before the kiss, claiming that it proved the kiss was consensual. They called her a liar and threatened to sue her for lying.
The video shows that he jumped on her before manhandling her, grabbing her head, and forcibly kissing her.
If you think the video makes everything look more innocent, either you are lying or you are posting without knowing what the story is about or having tried to understand the article you were responding to.
I’m asking you, specifically, what you’re referring to.
Why are you so afraid to say something of substance?
You all do realize that deep fakes are a thing, right? Video footage isn’t proof of anything.
This is either a very funny parody or a very sad soul.
I still can’t bring myself to care about this
And yet you can bring yourself to post. Funny old world.
