Usually I'd be hard-pressed to know the exact score of a game, but I generally try keep a good idea of the relative score: "Home team is up by a bunch (10+)", "Visitors are leading by a few (4-10)", "Score is pretty much tied (within three points either way)"
My wife when I get home: "who won?"
Me: "I did"

when you start caring too much about the exact score/ player fouls etc you simply have stopped doing the job you were contracted to do. Let the scorer do their job and you do yours!
