A1 attempts a shot as time is running down in the game. Horn sounds while ball is in flight. A1's try is then legally touched in flight by A2. Ball goes in. Count the goal? Losing coach complained it shouldn't count. We counted the goal because the try was not "ended" by A2's legal touch.

Mdray,

More info please. What exactly did A2 do? Tip the ball? Did it hit A2's shoulder? How was it touched?
