A discussion between the officials has to take place. The "R", as crew chief, has the tie breaking responsibility resting on his/her shoulders. Regardless which way it goes, one of the calls is being "overruled". In this case, the calling official overruled the "play on" official.

Show me. Reading 2-5, I don't see anything about tie-breaking authority; unless there is a goal involved.
