There is a report in the Globe and Mail that in addition to playing in Washington against DC United on Thursday August 9th that Real Madrid will play TFC at BMO Field two nights earlier. The report goes on to say real grass will be brought in for that game.

There have been a lot of complaints about the Field Turf at BMO this season. TFC is trying to practice at least once a week away from BMO on real grass. BMO Field has field turf because the city owned facility gets usewd year round with a bubble over the field during the winter, but MLSE - owners of the club have indicated they somehow want the facility changed to grass.
