FIFA president Gianni Infantino is in trouble with Spain's La Liga president Javier Tebas.

In short:

La Liga boss Javier Tebas wants FIFA president Gianni Infantino to quit.

Tebas says Infantino is hurting soccer by making international games bigger.

Tebas also does not like the new breaks for water during the World Cup and the long half-time.

Javier Tebas thinks Gianni Infantino should quit as FIFA boss for hurting soccer.

This is not the first time Tebas has spoken out against Infantino about games and the World Cup.

Tebas said, 'Making the World Cup bigger does not make sense. Soccer is not just the World Cup.'

The big World Cup brought people together, but problems are still there.

Tebas said, 'I think it's time for Infantino to go, but he has support, so it's hard.'

Tebas also said, 'Infantino should not stay, but he won't leave. Many people are against him, but they do nothing.'

South America's soccer group wants to make the 2030 World Cup bigger with 64 teams.

Tebas said, 'National games keep soccer alive, but they are hurting the sport for a short event.'

The World Cup final had a long half-time with a show and Justin Bieber.

Tebas criticized FIFA for the new water breaks and long half-time in the World Cup final.

The water breaks were meant to help players in the heat, but they hurt the game's flow.

Tebas said, 'FIFA does what it wants, not what's good for soccer. The water breaks were a lie for ads.'

Infantino wants to be FIFA boss again for a fourth term.

Tebas has spoken out against Infantino before.

A fan group also wants FIFA to change and listen to fans.

The fan group said, 'The World Cup should be for fans, but it's become a business.'

They also said, 'FIFA cares more about money and shows than the game and fans.'

The group is unhappy with high ticket prices and bad communication from FIFA.

They think FIFA is bad for soccer and the World Cup.

The group said, 'FIFA is not good at leading soccer, and the future of the game is in danger.'
