Samsung Tablet & BBC Sport

I have a Samsung Tablet, model SM-T280, on which I used to able to listen to those BBC Sports commentaries that are broadcast via the internet rather than over the air.
When I load the appropriate page on BBC Sport I get the message "This player no longer works properly on your device. You'll need to update your browser or device to continue"

From a bit of further investigation on the BBC website the issue seems to be the version of Android I'm using i.e. 5.1. From what I can find out Samsung have no intention of making a later version of Android available for this device.

I've tried using various BBC apps e.g. BBC Sounds, BBC Sports app with no success. I have used the Tune In Radio app previously but apparently the BBC isn't available on there now.

Any suggestions......I'm using Chrome. If I change to Firefox will that make any difference if the OS is the issue? Can I update the OS? Any other apps that might work??
TIA
