Spain men’s coach Luis de la Fuente has apologised for applauding football federation president Luis Rubiales´ speech last week in which he said he would not resign, after kissing Jenni Hermoso. De la Fuente and women’s head coach Jorge Vilda were among those pictured applauding the speech. “Those that know me know that these gestures do not represent my values, nor my way of thinking, nor my way of behaving in life. I always have been and will be on the side of equality and respect,” he said. “Not Jenni and not any of the other players are responsible for what happened there.”
