The former president of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), who on Thursday was convicted by the Spanish National High Court for a crime of sexual assault over the non-consensual kiss he gave to national team player Jenni Hermoso in Sydney after the 2023 World Cup final, has already confirmed that he will appeal the ruling, which also acquitted him of the crime of coercion.

Nine years ago, Serreh lost her mother and inherited a mission. It was the same mission her grandmother had, and it was what she became known for in her small Gambian village, surrounded by mango and cashew trees. Families from her village and beyond came to her home with a specific request. A day was agreed upon and she prepared what was necessary: a concoction that has a “calming” effect for a few minutes, the red clothes that she wore for the occasion and single-use blades.
