I don't have any record of it in BBC World News schedules dating back to 1991 and it seems improbable that they'd've been able to broadcast any Premier League footage internationally given the severe rights restrictions around it. The BBC World Service does cover live commentaries of the Premier League, but radio is a different matter. The closest to Match of the Day that BBC World have ever been was having an ability to broadcasting brief 'action highlights' from four matches per week during the early-2000s.
