Usually, when a sporting event is taking place, Camping World uses its artificial turf for athletes to run around on.
However, for this international friendly between these two teams the stadium will be using natural grass as the playing surface instead.
The friendly is to gear up both teams for this summer’s Copa America tournament, which includes USA, Brazil and 14 other teams from the Americas and Caribbean.
Kick-off for next week’s friendly is at 7 p.m. June 12. Here is a map of Camping World Stadium
