Nope. It’s not going too far. You go ahead and randomly kiss a coworker or subordinate at your place of work in front of everybody to include customers. Let me know how quickly HR wants you in their office.
Yeah, because it’s assault. Not sexual.
How dense are you people
Restraining someone else’s head with both hands and kissing on the lips without consent - an action that not only disrespects physical boundaries, but also psychological and neurochemical boundaries, sounds a lot like sexual assault to me.
If it was the player’s cheek or hand, then IMO your argument would make much more sense. This isn’t the case here, and sexual assault includes a lot more than forced penetration.
As far as the law is concerned, it’s sufficiently open ended AFAICT and leaves the definition up to the individual affected.

How is it not sexual if a grown man kisses a grown woman and they are not in any way related?
Ask the French
Yeah, never once have my French friends grabbed me by the head by both hands and kissed me full on the lips as a greeting.
Do you know what consent is?
Consent - When two parties agree that an action is OK to preform.
In the case of the French, the consent to kiss others comes from their culture / societal norms that make kissing as a greeting ok. The same cannot be said about Spain and especially the situation they were in.
“Certain people in France do this too, so this should be universally accepted behaviour. I am really smart”
