"Today I turned on the TV and saw that an Olympics match was still on it was a live broadcasting. It was between France and Brasil but I was surprised because there is a fifteen and a half hour differnce between India and Brasil timing. It was a late night match."

Please check.

It's rather wordy although I've left your construction and just amended the grammar. You definitely need to say what sport they were playing! Here's what I would say (I have guessed at the sport):

I turned on the TV and found that they were showing the India vs Brazil handball match live. I was a little surprised that it was live due to the time difference between India and Brazil but it must have been a late night match.
