Heya,

Canada will be playing an international football (soccer) friendly against Wales on May 30th in Wrexham at the Racecourse Ground. Tickets are £15 each.

The stadium is very easy to get to - less than a five-minute walk from the train stadium, and only 10 minutes from downtown Wrexham.

Here's a couple websites with more info about the ground:
