According to the website “Relevo”, phrases attributed by the federation to the player after the forced kiss, would not have been said by Hermoso; leader would have begged for attacker to appear on video
The crisis around Luis Rubialespresident of Royal Spanish Football Federation, it only increases! The website “Relevo” published an extensive report this Tuesday, 22, about the backstage and problems of the executive’s apology after kissing the attacker Jenni Hermoso without consent during the celebration of the title of the Women’s World Cup.
According to the website, the statements that were attributed to the player about what happened and released by RFEF last Sunday, the 20th, they did not actually go to Hermoso. The speeches would have been written by the communication department of the federation.
“It was a completely spontaneous mutual gesture for the immense joy of winning a World Cup. The president and I have a great relationship, his behavior with all of us was 10, and it was a natural gesture of affection and gratitude”, would have said Jenni Hermoso, according to the RFEF.
According to the Spanish website, the strategy of the speech created by the federation was to prevent the authorities from talking about what happened. The attacker and all her family just want to talk about Women’s World Cup: “the rest is not important”stated marisolHermoso’s mother, during an interview for TVE.
“Relevo” also claims that Rubiales asked the player to appear in an apology video by his side, made at the airport of doha, at the Qatar. However, Hermoso refused to participate. According to the report, the president even begged the athlete, in front of the other players, family members and members of the delegation. All to no avail.
Luis Rubiales acknowledged that his post “would be at stake” due to the episode, in addition to the obscene gesture made during the celebration, while he was still in the tribunes of the Sydney Olympic Stadium. The president needed the support of the player, which was denied by her.
