I can't speak for the BBC/ITV coverage, but comparing what I've seen of CBC and ABC here in Canada, and occasionally clips of others on the web, it appeared to me to be the other way around: FIFA supplies graphics in a predefined style on the host feed, and individual broadcasters match that style of graphics for the score bug and any other localized in-game graphics. Not to say that BBC, ITV, and maybe a few others aren't doing it, but I would figure ESPN/ABC would be among the first to use their own graphics in-game if the option was available, since they're certainly using their regular graphics package out-of-game. -- TV or Not TV ....
