If they felt the Irish player enter play too soon, it's an infraction. Nothing in the rule book says that if you waive off the goal in that situation you can't subsequently call the penalty. All the rule book says is that too many players is a bench minor. If there is another application of the rule somewhere in the current rulebook regarding too many players detected during a challenged goal, I don't know where it is.
