Spain midfielder Aitana Bonmatí says Luis Rubiales' conviction for sexual assault sets a precedent moving forward and hopes it will lead to changes for women in and out of football.

Spain and Arsenal defender Laia Codina has said her national team are "stronger" after the off-pitch difficulties they have faced in recent years, most notably the sexual assault of Jenni Hermoso by former federation chief Luis Rubiales.

While Sarina Wiegman praised Jenni Hermoso for her ‘remarkable courage’, there is a reason the Lionesses won’t stop talking about the incident that overshadowed the Women’s World Cup final

Spain’s women’s team played their first game since Luis Rubiales was found guilty of sexual assault for kissing Jenni Hermoso after the 2023 Women’s World Cup final. Spain came from 2-0 down against Belgium in Valencia with 20 minutes left to win a thrilling game 3-2.

England manager Sarina Wiegman on Tuesday hailed the mental fortitude displayed by Spain's players during the trial of former Spanish soccer federation (RFEF) chief Luis Rubiales, ahead of a Women's Nations League meeting between the teams.

Tome, who was assistant head coach to Jorge Vilda at the Women’s World Cup, said she was only focused on the football ahead of Spain’s meeting with England at Wembley
