This week in sports has been marked by significant developments and controversies. Former Spanish soccer federation boss Luis Rubiales testified in court, asserting that player Jenni Hermoso consented to the kiss which led to charges of sexual assault and ignited a broader conversation on sexism in women's football in Spain.
Meanwhile, San Diego FC broadens its ownership group by welcoming actress and producer Issa Rae, renowned for HBO's 'Insecure.' In other news, the New Orleans Saints appointed Kellen Moore as the new head coach, following his previous role as the offensive coordinator for the Eagles, who triumphed over the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX.
The Super Bowl this year was monumental for Nevada sportsbooks, which reported a record $22 million in profits driven by wagers amounting to $151.6 million. In alpine skiing, American skier Mikaela Shiffrin celebrated her 15th world championship medal, winning gold in the women's team combined event, reinforcing her status as the most successful World Cup skier.
