Spain's football World Cup winners have announced a boycott, saying they will refuse to play until the President of the Spanish football association resigns or is sacked.

Luis Rubiales is facing intense criticism after kissing one of the victorious women’s team on the lips following the game and grabbing his crotch while celebrating their victory over England in the final.

Jenni Hermoso, the player who he kissed, said there had been no consent. She described claims by Mr Rubiales that the kisswas consensual as “false” and “part of the manipulative culture that he has generated".
