FIBA's rules are the same as NFHS/NCAA/NBA regarding when a goal is scored.

Quote:
16.1.1 A goal is made when a live ball enters the basket from above and remains within or passes through the basket.
FIBA's BI rule does have the part concerning touching the ball while it's in the net but it's only illegal if the defense does it and the ball doesn't pass through the basket (if, however, it's a player who reaches through the basket from below then anyone can be called for it). Under FIBA rules the Iguadola play just goes as a missed shot because the ball came out of the wrong side of the basket.
