FIFA suspended the president of the Spanish soccer federation Saturday after star player Jenni Hermoso accused him of a nonconsensual kiss during the celebrations of Spain's Women's World Cup victory. Rubiales and representatives from the Royal Spanish Football Federation were also ordered to refrain from contacting Hermoso and anyone close to her, the statement said. The announcement came hours after Spain's soccer federation said Saturday it would take legal action to defend Rubiales from "lies." It added that Pedro Rocha Junco, the vice president of the federation, would be the interim president. In her statement, Hermoso denied Rubiales' contention that the kiss he gave her was consensual.
