    I strongly suspect that if he’d admitted he’d made a mistake, said it happened in the heat of the moment because he was so excited at their achievement, earnestly apologised, and perhaps offered to do some training, take a break or donate some money this would have all gone away.

    But no, the moron doubled down. Macho morons.

      Doubled down? He’s so far down he might find diamonds. He claimed to have done nothing wrong after being condemned by the freakin prime minister. The audacity of this man is remarkable lol

        Not only that he threatened to sue people who said otherwise, victim included.

      It definitely wasn’t consensual if she’s insisting it wasn’t. He also made creepy comments about wanting to marry her, and went into the women’s dressing room to hug her and chase after her some more. Dude is obsessed. She’s gay I believe too, she used to date another female player

    He’s a jackass for refusing to admit that he was wrong and refusing to step down. When you’re making international headlines, don’t dig in. You fucked up. Step down.

      Right-wing mentality cannot allow being wrong. Its a huge problem affecting everyone.

      In a new video you’re able to see all the players, including Hermoso, with Rubiales on the same bus laugh about this like it’s the funniest thing. That kind of thing is something you can’t reneg on. Hermoso literally lifted him off of his feet in the air right beforehand. The guy had just seen his team win. I don’t understand how you circlejerking idiots are making this out for “rape-culture”. Is it that you’re simply all kissless virgins? It was just a fucking kiss, not even something sexual. I suggest you crawl back into the cave you stumbled out of.
