Safely disconnect when the final scoreboard is shown

counter-strike-global-offensive

When playing competitive mode in CS GO, at the end of a round the scoreboard is shown and it takes sometimes up to 30 seconds for the match to actually finish and go back to the menu.

Can I safely disconnect during this event or will I suffer a match making penalty?

I tried this in at least 20 matches and disconnected immediately after the scoreboard showed up and the prizes where drawn. I never got banned.

So yes, it is safe to disconnect when the scoreboard is shown.
