This team was fortunate in that the DP was ejected instead of one of the 8 players that would have caused a forfeit.
A similar situation happened to a 14U team at the Nationals in Midlands, TX this year. They had 10 players and elected to play DP/Flex (not something I would have done, but...). While on defense, a player from the other team crashed into F2 holding the ball. The umpire ejected the offensive player. F2 got up, apparently looking like she was spoiling for a fight and got ejected, too. The offensive team won the game 7-0 (by forfeit).
