A little noisy and fading but discernible

1500z News (Lead with EU news)
1505z Sportsworld - A shift of gears I'm guessing, 2 OM's with Extra time coverage of Poland/Switzerland knotted at 1.  Otherwise, it would have been pre-match coverage of Wales/N. Ireland.
1530z End of extra time. News.
1534z Coverage of Penalty Kicks between Poland/Switzerland.
1542z Poland through on PK's 5-4.
1545z pre-match coverage Wales/N. Ireland
1600z Kick off Wales/N. Ireland

Getting a noisy copy on 11890. EDIT fine-tuned with the antenna tuner, can hear OM talking, it's not a play by play so this frequency isn't carrying the match.

15420 signed off right after kick off at 1600z
17640 Started with with match, went to news, then Sportsworld
17830 Might have game now but too much noise to hear.  
11890 Can't pick up signal
I'm thinking halftime restriction like Premier league, they will come back on 1700z

My apologies, they never came back after kick off.  Subject renamed to the play by play they had, not what they broke away from.
