Ella Toone has said that England\u2019s Lionesses \u201call stand behind Jennifer Hermoso\u201d with Luis Rubiales still yet to resign after kissing the Spain midfielder without her consent after the Women\u2019s World Cup final.<\/p>\n

The president of the Spanish football association (RFEF) has refused to step down from his role after the incident during the medal ceremony that followed Spain\u2019s triumph ver England in Australia.<\/p>\n

Rubiales, who was also criticised for grabbing his crotch during the final, had been expected to resign last week, but declined to do so at an extraordinary press conference.<\/p>\n

The saga took another bizarre turn on Monday after the 46-year-old\u2019s mother locked herself inside a church and went on hunger strike, describing the reaction to her son\u2019s behaviour as \u201can inhuman, bloodthirsty witch hunt\u201d.<\/p>\n

Manchester United\u2019s Toone, who was part of the Lionesses side beaten in Sydney, believes that Rubiales\u2019s actions and the subsequent outcry have overshadowed Spain\u2019s first Women\u2019s World Cup win.<\/p>\n

\u201cSpain were unbelievable throughout the tournament and they\u2019ve won the World Cup which should be the main talking point,\u201d Toone said to BBC Breakfast. <\/p>\n

\u201cYet it\u2019s overshadowed by something which happened after the game which isn\u2019t acceptable. The Lionesses all stand by Jennifer Hermoso.<\/p>\n

\u201cA couple of the girls, the leaders in the squad, got together and brought a statement that we all believe in and to show our support and solidarity, to show we\u2019re thinking of Hermoso and show we want the right thing to be done.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt doesn\u2019t just go away with a sorry – which he hasn\u2019t said either. We should be talking about the success of the World Cup and how much we\u2019ve inspired the next generation. Hopefully the right thing is done.\u201d<\/p>\n

The regional chiefs of the RFEF have now called for the organisation\u2019s president to resign, while Rubiales has been provisionally suspended from all footballing activities for 90 days by Fifa.<\/p>\n
