Besides, I dont think FIFA will be impressed by a temporary stand stadium that only accommodates 45,000 - if that's even possible.

As JHikka stated above already, it could be expanded to even greater numbers than that. It was designed for expansion with special adjustable canopies. Realistically it will likely be expanded to at least 40,000 permanent seats by 2026 (given the growth rate of the attendance and stadium) and could easily accomodate 5,000-10,000 temporary seats. For the Centennial Classic it had 40,000 seats (10,000 temporary) and tons of space to spare to add more.
