It would be considered as a goaaal ???
Or the ref call to play the ball again as gaolkick?? Answer provided by Referee Joe McHugh Hi
The ball cannot be touched inside the penalty area as the ball is not in play until it leaves the penalty area. If the ball is touched inside the penalty area by a player from either team the goal kick is retaken.

the LOTG require the kick to be retaken. An aware referee could be hitting the whistle early to stop the unnecessary shot. Allowing a dead play to go beyond its time, could result in injury.
Cheers
