One team takes a shot, which is deflected slightly above the 2m height of the crossbar, but then immediately drops straight into the goal. Should the goal be given?

Under the FA LOTGs, the ball is 'dead' the moment it goes above head height no matter how slightly that is - therefore a goal should not be given. This is at odds with the current WFA LOTGs which all the goal if it was deflected high off the keeper, where a goal would be awarded.
