FORMER SPAINISH COACH JORGE VILDA DESCRIBES SACK AS UNFAIR
Former Spain head coach Jorge Vilda says being sacked weeks after winning the Women’s World Cup was unfair. The Spanish Football Federation, RFEF, dismissed Vilda on Tuesday, with Montse Tome named his successor. Vilda’s exit came amid the fallout after the behaviour of RFEF president Luis Rubiales at the World Cup final. Most of Vilda’s coaching staff resigned and 81 players refused to play for Spain in the aftermath. Spain beat England in the World Cup final on 20 August but the win was overshadowed by Rubiales kissing forward Jenni Hermoso, which she has said was not consensual.
