Simply calling an intentional foul is incorrect unless you passed on the initial contact. But then the argument is you had a take-foul situation and you allowed the play to escalate to an INT foul.
Your only course of action is common then T. The alternative is just crappy officiating either way IMO. You either passed on the first contact and allowed escalation or you adjudicated 2 individual actions as one.
The correct path is most likely the path of most resistance during the game.

Or the "two" actions were really one extended action.
It sounds to me like the push came before the whistle was sounded. If it was that quick, it could very well have been one act.
I think I'd have to see it to know if I'd consider it one act or two.
