Wow! That sucks. They must have taken a few more points off your sentry that did not register to the final score. I just had a match 50-50 that we one at the literal last second. I got the final blow on their sentry and we won due to our team score being higher, other team must have lost it!
Edit: I have also noticed I have gotten credit for kills that I could not have contributed to at all. I just recently got credit for killing someone about 30 sec after a 20 sec respawn that I did not even encounter in the fight I was in before I died.
