I fear someone will know the answer to this , but

If the the ball in a game of football(soccer) bounces off the referee and scores, and that is the only goal in the game, who wins? If neither side, does that mean the Ref wins?

Why did I feel the need to answer that? I don't even *like* football! smiley - erm
