At some level that matters!
Of course, there is a case book play about the ref not knowing that the U counted a goal at the horn.

I'm not trying to start a fight on this, but I have to say I'm surprised at your thoughts here. I would think that the rules regarding the running total of the official being final in matters of disagreement would be overwhelmingly compelling in this case. Even if the perception of the participants had to be corrected at a later time or date. Otherwise, why keep an official book?
But I certainly would not want to be the person who had to make the phone calls to straighten out the mess; nor would I want to be the referee who got a call from that person!
