DISGRACED Luis Rubiales\u00a0"forcefully" kissed Lionesses star Lucy Bronze and "cupped and stroked" the face of Laura Coombs, the head of the FA said. <\/p>\n
The Spanish FA chief, 46, was banned from football for three years in October after his "inexcusable" behaviour at the 2023 Women's World Cup final.<\/p>\n

He kissed Spain's midfielder Jenni Hermoso without her consent after Spain beat England 1-0 – and was also seen grabbing his crotch while celebrating the win. <\/p>\n
In written evidence to Fifa's disciplinary committee, FA chair Debbie Hewitt said Rubiales was "unpleasant and unnecessarily aggressive" while waiting in the tunnel for the medal ceremony.<\/p>\n
Hewitt said he initially "shook the hand of every player and touched a few on the arm as they walked past".<\/p>\n
But he "seemingly forcefully kissed" England defender Lucy Bronze on her face and "cupped and stroked" teammate Laura Coombs' face, Hewitt said. <\/p>\n
