Have you ever seen two punts on the same play? How about with the second one leading to a touchdown?
Canadian football rules state that on scrimmage kicks (i.e., punts and missed field goals), the returning team can respond by immediately punting the ball back to the other team, creating a free-for-all where whichever team gets to the ball first will retain possession. As long as there are five players behind the punter (on the returning team) when the ball is punted back, the team is “onside.”
With this rule in mind. We know that this play was legal, and the correct result (a touchdown) was made by the officials.
