Then only the official with the primary responsibility punches, if necessary, and goes to report the foul. It takes a fraction of a second, if the officials have made a good pregame, to silently agree on who has the primary responsibility.
In some rare situations, it could be necessary that the "non-primary" official goes to confer with the "primary" official; for example, when calling a foul which happened before the contact called by the partner. Judging differently one and the same contact is "not a good thing", IMO.
