Excellent reception....in Portuguese.  Live coverage of US.Brazil friendly being played in East Rutherford, NJ.

0010z Frequent mention of Brazil, play by play OM talking at almost auctioneer pace.  Color analyst much slower cadence.
It sounds like to me they are doing game from a bunker in Brazil while watching TV.  Hollow, echo sound to broadcast - no crowd noise.
0019z Goal by Firmino with an assist by City's Jesus for Brazil

On most afternoons up here, especially after about 2200 UTC, Radio Nacional da Amazonia on 11780 blasts in as well as, or often better than, anything else on shortwave at that time. I sometimes listen to the station's Brazilian tunes while finishing up my editing work at home.
