A simple solution to that would be to not shoot the ball at a referee...

Last weekend I looked up from punching in a truss to see a ball flying at my face. I punched the ball back into the field, as I value my face more than someone's match win. Referee's positions are outlined in the manual. It's no different than hitting the allaince wall and having the ball bounce back into play.

Cameramen locations are not mentioned in the manual, so I could why that could be cause for a replay, if their actions were deamed to affect the outcome of the match.

Tl;dr, don't hit referees and expect them to help you.
