Footage has emerged of Spanish head coach Jorge Vilda appearing to touch a female staff member inappropriately during the Women's World Cup final between Spain and England.

Video footage taken seconds after Olga Carmona's 29th-minute goal against the Lionesses footage shows the Spanish staff celebrating - and Vilda's left hand seeming to linger on a female staff member's breast.

Vilda has become a polarising figure among his team in recent years, with those divisions becoming very apparent at this year's Women's World Cup.

Fractures have emerged on the field with Vilda notably running on to the pitch to celebrate with his players following their quarter-final triumph against the Netherlands, but being ignored by his team. 

He was also snubbed a handshake by Spanish star Alexia Putellas during their semi-final win against Sweden.

While he as achieved remarkable success since he was appointed as the head coach, leading the team to Algarve Cup and Cyprus Cup glory and now winning the World Cup, divisions between himself and his players have only escalated throughout his time in charge.
