The thing to remember here is that the PK was awarded for a foul by the defending team in the first place. So we want to make sure that the offended team has a fair chance at converting it.

A technical violation by the attacking team on a converted goal causing them to completely lose the opportunity of the PK just doesn't amount to that fair chance, so they get to kick it again. On the other hand, if they couldn't get it into the goal to begin with, well, they had their chance.

On the other hand, if the defenders encroach and the PK is missed, we retake it then as well.
