Tend to think you just run with goal line technology tbh. The primacie of the goal is what makes football, football.
Play the passage until it comes to its natural end. Do it in union with the advantage law without any problems.

Ukraine's "goal" was over the line, no doubt, but it was equally as apparent matey received the ball in an offside position before he laid it on. Seems contrary to natural justice if it'd stood because they was GL tech but the officials couldn't check offside.
