WHY WAS RONALDOS GOAL NOT GIVEN?

In the match between Manchester United verses Chelsea, which was played on 11/1/2009. Christiano Ronaldo headed in a goal in the 45th minute from a corner kick , taken by Wayne Rooney it was a short corner passed to Ryan Giggs, who then kicked the ball for Ronaldo to head in a neat header but the referee and linesmen disallowed the goal.
But let us see why the goal was not allowed?
Firstly the ball must be still in the place where the corners are taken, this was moving, secondly Rooney passed the ball backwards to Giggs so the corner was taken from the wrong place. Referee HaroldWebb disallowed it. But Vidic scored a header in the corner kick that was retaken.
