Spain astonished the sporting world when they soared into the 2023 Women’s World Cup final in Sydney before going on to beat England 1-0 and claim football’s ultimate prize. But the joy of their triumph was short-lived. Within minutes of winning, Spain’s top football administrator Luis Rubiales kissed a player on the lips without consent. Rubiales was eventually charged with sexual assault and coercion, and his trial is currently underway on in Madrid. His action on that day shocked the world. But it wasn’t an isolated incident. Tonight, on Foreign Correspondent former players and staff reveal how women and girls have endured a toxic misogynistic culture for years. The ABC’s Europe Correspondent Kathryn Diss talks to the football stars who were there on the night, including two-time Ballon d’or winner Alexia Putellas and up and coming Arsenal star Laia Codina. They tell her about their own distressing experiences and why they believe that “kiss” sparked Spain’s “Me Too” moment. With all eyes now on the Rubiales’ trial the players are hoping this day of reckoning will forever change the appalling way women have been treated in the sport they love.
