I like the one near the beginning with 4 planes flying in dutiful formation, and two others scamping around behind. Playful.

Re: Just...................whatever
What do you guys think about the Spanish football kiss thing? I personally can't see what all the fuss is about. It's not like he squeezed her boob or anything, it was a closed mouth kiss. Spanish people kiss each other all the time, and they had just won the world cup.
They are talking like its a major violation and he should be sacked. I think that is ridiculous.

Kiss on the cheek is a greeting, lips is more intimate. It was a peck, I doubt his lips moved. He was definitely subconsciously indicating more than a friendly kiss; that he wanted her - but was quite chaste about it. He wasn't the one to win the world cup, so he was taking advantage of the moment.
I'd call it a minor issue that he now knows to avoid. But yeah, they just won the world cup, since he hugged her before pecking her I don't think there should have been so much uproar.

{{ Its nonsense. She is saying she never gave consent. What? Who asks or gives consent to celebrate your team winning? How would that even work in the heat of the moment with adrenalin and passion running high? I've been hugged and kissed, and yes even on the lips by other guys I dont even know in the mass celebrations of a football win. Its exuberence. We have forgotten that an act in and of itself is not the problem, its the intent behind an act. And I see nothing here that shows he had any intent of anything more than celebrating a famous historic win with his team. And what I 100% don't see is an assault taking place of any sort whatsoever let alone a sexual one. At the very, very worst he may have, in the moment, overstepped a social bound, I dont know Spanish society well enough to judge that, but even then its no more than a social fauxpas not a sacking offence or being accused of being a sexual predator. Its ridiculous.
And it belittles all those women with real experience of sexual assault by having any comparison drawn to this.}}

yep. It's a sign of the times. People just don't have mental robustness anymore. The slightest micro-aggression triggers them. She turned a joyous occasion into something really entitled and whiny. So much for the tattoos and playing a man's game. There are things that go on in rugby clubs that would have her running for her safe space. get a grip woman.

I dont know what it is but it seems uniquely Western. What would happen if these people had to survive a war like the Ukrainians. Half of them would run off and hide in safe basements and the other half would whine on Instagram that they can't get their chai latte.

{{ I really don't understand this one, the Spanish Football authorities are trying to oust him, FIFA have revoked his right to coach, the Spanish government is investigating him and there's this gem from the Spanish football authorities- "As the protection delegate for sexual violence, my duty is to adhere to the protocol and safeguard the privacy of those affected by this incident and of the Sexual Violence Advisory Committee."
Where in that video of him celebrating the win with one of his players does an act of sexual violence occur, did I blink and miss it? Why is someone tasked with investigating cases of sexual violence got anything to do with this, let alone in charge of the official report into it? How does this even fall under their jurisdiction? What's going on? Have I Mandela Effected into a universe that's even worse than the one I was stuck in before?!}}

Re: Just...................whatever
This is no longer the laid back Spain I've come to expect.
A couple public figures should have said "you probably shouldn't have done that" and have it be the end.
Since there wouldn't be an over reaction he wouldn't have to get defensive, just say "yeah I crossed the line a bit there, sorry. It was the excitement."

Re: Just...................whatever
It's all very pathetic. People kiss each other when they are innocently happy, it's got nothing to do with 'sexual violence'. its barking mad.

{{ It's getting madder by the day. Now the Spanish legal system is getting involved with prosecutors opening a preliminary case with a view to prosecuting him for, get this, 'sexual assault'.
And in more typical Spanish fashion his mother has locked herself in a church and gone on hunger strike in protest against the witchhunt on her son!
edit add- "prosecutors from the national court have opened a preliminary investigation to look into the facts, which could constitute an offence of sexual assault".
The statement indicated the court would offer Hermoso a chance to file a lawsuit. - BBC News}}
