google blogger: how to replace old analytics snippet with new asynchronous snippet?

I have a Google Analytics account and I need to use the new asynchronous snippet in my blogger blog. According to documentation, I should insert GA <script> tag to the bottom of the <head> section.

In my blogger html template, the <body> section ends with this:

  </div>
  </div>

  <script type='text/javascript'>
    window.setTimeout(function() {
        document.body.className = document.body.className.replace(&#39;loading&#39;, &#39;&#39;);
      }, 10);
  </script>
  <b:include data='blog' name='google-analytics'/>
</body>

So this is the old snippet and should be disabled, yes?

Well, I commented the line <b:include data='blog' name='google-analytics'/> and scrolled up to the <head> section. It ends like this:

      #layout .region-inner {
        min-width: 0;
        width: auto;
      }
      ]]>
    </b:template-skin>
  </head>

So I inserted the Google Analytics <script> tag just before the </head>. But it doesn't upload and it says that I have an error.

So, how to do it?

Well, the answer to my question is that the error I was getting yesterday has not occurred today, when I made a test one more time. So basically there is no issue at all: either deleting or commenting the old GA snippet should work.
