U.S. soccer star Hope Solo accused ex-FIFA President Sepp Blatter of grabbing her buttocks during an awards ceremony five years ago, an allegation that the former head of international football’s governing body denied.
Solo, 36, told a Portuguese newspaper that Blatter touched her inappropriately in January 2013 during the Ballon D'or awards ceremony in Lisbon. A spokeswoman for Solo on Saturday, Nov. 11, confirmed her comments.
