Why - Nani have realised that the ref hadn't blown (and furthermore double checked with the ref) before scoring. Gomes must have also suddenly realised as he attempted to save Nani's shot. All in all a smart bit of play from Nani in my opinion.

Rather than stopping play, the referee may allow play to continue if doing so will benefit the team against which an offence has been committed. This is known as "playing an advantage". The referee may "call back" play and penalise the original offence if the anticipated advantage does not ensue within a short period

I understand that - I inferred that Arthur was suggesting that goals had been disallowed after a game had finished!!. That's what I was after links for.
Thanks anyway!!
