Much of Wednesday's hearing dealt with the journey home from Australia after the World Championship gold and the attempts to get star player Jennifer Hermoso to record a video with Luis Rubiales, in connection with the layover in Doha.
This was to downplay that Rubiales, then chairman of the Spanish Football Federation, had kissed Hermoso during the gold celebration.
I saw how she walked back and forth, I saw that she didn't feel well and was sad. Several times, when Rubiales talked to Jenni on the plane, she felt pressured because they said she had to record a video. Which she didn't want to, says national goalkeeper Misa Rodriguez.
During the flight, national team coach Jorge Vilda also spoke with Rafael Hermoso, to get him to convince the Spanish star player.
Vilda said it would be best for everyone, otherwise it would be magnified and worsen for everyone. He insinuated that my sister was at the end of her career, and that it was impossible to know what would happen if she didn't cooperate, says Hermoso in the hearing.
The trial in San Fernando de Henares outside Madrid is expected to continue for another two weeks.
Wednesday's proceedings began with the defense withdrawing its request for Rubiales' two daughters to testify in the trial.
Luis Rubiales risks up to two and a half years in prison – one year for sexual assault and one and a half years for illegal coercion.
