Livescore v2 removes in-progress games after midnight UTC

I previously posted this issue and received no replies, so asking again here.

Matches that start prior to midnight UTC and are still in-progress as the new day begins are removed from the livescore v2 response. This is very common time slot for American sports, and it's happening for MLB (4424) and NHL (4380) -- and likely other leagues...

For example, NHL match with ID 1903446 started at 23:00:00 UTC, and is live as I write this, but does not appear in the livescore v2 response set now that it is 01:05:00 UTC the following day.

Explicitly including the targeted date with &d=10-05-2023 does nothing to change the response. I've been using the lookupevent endpoint as a fallback but it is not updated in a timely manner with games sometimes not marked as "FT" until hours afterwards.

Are there any undocumented livescore v2 parameters I can use to prevent this from happening? What can be done about this? Games ending are "events" that my app polls for to trigger downstream actions.

I really need to test this but it should be fixed for most sports.

If you could list the sports that it happens for that would be useful.

Any update on this? Tonight's NBA game (idEvent 1906690) is not in livescore v2.

The result still wasn't present at 6AM UTC and I had to manually add it.

NHL scores have also been not present up to six hours after a games finishes.
