I think that if it were a FIFA match, they would have to do what they did at Giants Stadium during the '94 World Cup -- Elevate wooden planks all across the field (with supports) extending to about the fifth row of seats to make more playing room.

British media reported on this possibility

The Notre Dame Stadium in South Bend (80,795), Indianapolis’ Lucas Oil Stadium (63,000), Ross-Ade Stadium in West Lafayette (62,500) and Memorial Stadium in Bloomington (52,929) are the biggest possible venues in Indiana."
