and live on Freeview channel 276
Klich played 85 minutes of Poland's Euros opener against Slovakia in which Paulo Sousa's side fell to a 2-1 defeat after playing the final 28 minutes with ten men after Grzegorz Krychowiak was sent off for a second booking.
Klich again lined up in the XI as Poland took on Spain in Seville knowing defeat would have meant a Group stages exit for Sousa's side.

Klich began brightly against Spain and saw a long-range effort from some 30 yards out dip just under the crossbar.
Spain then took a 25th-minute lead through Alvaro Morata and Klich was booked for a late challenge 11 minutes later.
Neither side made any changes at the break and Klich was then involved in the move that led to Robert Lewandowski heading the Poles level in the 54th minute.
