It's not in the rules to tell the linesman your taking a corner, why should it be, he should be aware of whats going on and actually watch the match and whats happening with the ball. In this case it looks like the linesman wasn't doing his job properly and didn't see Rooney take the corner, so thought Giggs didn't take the corner correctly, therefore making the wrong decision and penalising a team for being creative. And Benitez says United get all the big decisions in their favour
Anyway, a great performance from United today, totally outplayed Chelsea all over the pitch
