Formula for ball return!!!!

[HyperPiGuy]

if you score with 10 seconds left according to the DOGMA you have negative 5 seconds to get the ball back in play. so as soon as you score you get a penalty.

Please read again. You would have until the clock reached -1 seconds to return the ball before PENALTY. (Or -5 seconds on the clock, if there was another unreturned ball in your end.)

Since the clock will never reach that time, does that mean you will have infinity before a PENALTY is applied? Or is the game artifically extended in order to assess the PENALTY? Or will the PENALTY apply when the clock hits 0? The GDC hasn't yet answered, maybe because it hasn't yet been asked.
