That was great. If the scoring team were kind they would let him have a goal at their end. Then the ref would have scored twice. I wonder if that has ever happened before?

I think a ref may have scored a header once.
Just checked and yes https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...res-goal-as-ball-ricochets-off-his-head-video
Not the one I was thinking of though

Should be credited to the last player who touched it, the ref is considered a part of the on field equipment, in the same way the frame of the goal is. If it's a shot that hits the ref and goes in the it should be given to the player who shot. If it's a clearance and it hits the ref and goes in then it goes down as an own goal against the player making the clearance.
Mike Dean would run the length of the pitch, take his shirt off and lob it into the crowd then give himself a yellow card.

Won't count from next season as will be a drop ball, so could well be the last ever referee goal
