Jenni Hermoso has filed a legal complaint over the kiss by Spanish Football Federation president Luis Rubiales.
Rubiales kissed Hermoso on the lips after Spain’s World Cup final win, which she says was not consensual.
Rubiales claims the kiss was “mutual and “consensual”, but has been provisionally suspended by football’s world governing body, Fifa.
The complaint means the 46-year-old could face criminal charges.

On 29 August, Spanish prosecutors opened a preliminary investigation into whether the incident amounts to a crime of sexual assault.
Rubiales, who prior to the kiss had been seen grabbing his crotch while celebrating Spain’s 1-0 win over England, has repeatedly refused to resign from his position.
