Yes he kissed her but it was IMO the exuberance of the moment .

According to ESPN, Spanish football president Luis Rubiales will resign over his behavior, including the unsolicited kiss.
I agree…only moments before she had pulled him to her and lifted him into the air…was this not invading his personal space? Honest the world has gone mad

Hi @Azz thanks for fixing the title!
I think Rubiales is a dirty young man. I don’t know if this youtube vid is all over the media like the kiss on the lips? He’s the one grabbing his crotch. The Spanish are normally very proper and polite.
He’s 46 so not so young .
this has just got outa hand - all hands!! - this was the world cup ; excitement ; exhuberance and hormones circulating - she picked him up in the air - why - why - because she didn’t like him - he responded by kissing - it wasn’t one of those deep throat kisses we all love and know it was a peck on the lips - if there was no televised event it would have just passed by. Now there is talk of ME too feelings and someone on a nother site mentioned a team of lesbians?? - this is how anger and fights are fueled. Everyone was charged with excitement at a great event - why make a big deal about it ??

He is not liked, he gives the country a bad name on the world stage. Perhaps they thought this was a good opportunity to get rid of him, but they were wrong about that.
Because it is a big deal in Spain, whereas not so big in most of the rest of the world, making it a big deal for media opinion.
Luis ‘s mother has come out in fierce defence of her son , she has made her stand in a church and gone on hunger strike in protest .
A boys best friend is his mum .

That is true 
An interesting point was made by a journalist. What if the player concerned had been a bloke? Would Rubiales be condemned , or possibly lauded by the Gay Community ? 
mountains out of molehills comes to mind - all he had to do was shake hands ;apologize and kiss again and make up and it would all be over heh?/

Apparently Gazza the former footballer, kissed Prince William when they met by accident in Bournemouth. Thankfully it was not on the lips! Could our old geezer Gazza, be just right for manager of The Spanish Ladies football Team!?? 
I agree. What is the fuss about? Just a congratulatory kiss. My female manager was upset this week. We had a frontal hug and a simple kiss on the lips. My partner was not fazed by our action.
Nothing wrong with a kiss of congratulations. If I meet a female friend I have not have seen for a while we have a simple kiss on the lips. No passion involved so what’s wrong with it.
Actually quite a lot
I can see the football man was carried away on the spur of at the moment but I would not like to be kissed on the lips by a male friend …
It’s too intimate .
I kiss my husband on the lips it’s special to people in relationships
there is much more to this story than has ever been disclosed by any party and may never be so?
