Winning QPs = winner + losers score!
I see it happening.. definitely...

T190 can tip a goal..

But we can right it as well...

And it makes sense to tip a goal to lose the other teams small balls.. BUT!

If you're that close to the goal, why not just take it and balance it.. either you've got the other goal or the other team does but in either cause, it'd be more beneficial for you to balance it than tip it.. but, in a stuck situation, it would work...

Another thing to remember though.. is that you gotta read the rules... ala FIRST2k, the winning alliances QPs = their match score + loser's match score..

So unless it's the only way to ensure you're the winner, I would ditch the underdog alliances chance to score all together
