RULING: The referee will have the mistake corrected. The overtime will continue with the corrected score. Once the ball becomes live in the overtime, the overtime will be played even though a subsequent correction of an error or *mistake changes the score. A bookkeeping mistake can be corrected at any time until the final score is approved.

I don't think that applies, as it's a scorer mistake... Not an official's mistake. We can always fix a scorer's mistake.
