This can be after the match has officially ended, making the challenge, scale, and capture information basically impossible to live score. It's unfortunate, but reasonable, IMO.

There were some instructions given to CMP refs regarding this, and I hope it was more consistent. I'm not comfortable sharing exactly what the instructions were, but this is something that was known and accounted for.

Back to the OP, although it is technically not legal to replay the match, at this stage of the season, I find it reasonable to give both teams the live scoring and sounds.

I also noticed something on Einstein that was against ref instructions for the rest of the season - but Aidan was the head ref, and he's the big cheese - so whatever was fine IMO (and this particular thing I agree with being done on Einstein - and pretty much only there). Again, not entirely comfortable sharing details.
As for the actual replay, I'd leave it to head ref discretion - though I think it was justified.
