The 'kiss-gate' saga continues as the matter is taken to court

Jenni Hermoso has decided to file a legal complaint against Spanish FA president Luis Rubiales following the controversial kiss during the World Cup celebration.

Rubiales could face a 4-year prison sentence if he is to be fund guilty of sexual assault.

The 46-year-old kissed the Spanish player on the lips, which she states was not consensual.

A statement from the national prosecutor’s office said: “Jennifer Hermoso filed an express complaint for the facts that you all know.

“The national court’s prosecutor’s office will file a complaint as soon as possible. The statement took place at the state attorney general’s office to protect the privacy of the victim.”

Rubiales has received preliminary suspension by FIFA and many, including the men’s national team, have deemed his behavior as incorrect.
