Spanish footballer Jenni Hermoso has told a trial that that she did not consent to being kissed by the country’s former top football official after winning the 2023 Women’s World Cup.

On the first day of Luis Rubiales’ trial, Ms Hermoso also said she felt coerced to publicly exonerate the former president of Spain’s Football Federation after the incident in Sydney, Australia.
