Spain’s football federation chief Luis Rubiales has been under fire this week for instances of inappropriate behaviour during the FIFA Women’s World Cup final where Spain beat England 1-0 to lift its maiden world title.
When asked to comment on the scandal surrounding Rubiales, Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique instead praised Rubiales and his “exceptional work” at the helm of the Spanish football federation.
Former Spain coach Enrique also stressed that Rubiales has “acknowledged his mistakes” after his unsolicited kiss on the lips of player Jenni Hermoso following Spain’s Women’s World Cup triumph.
