Just hours after Switzerland’s Alexander Frei was cleared by UEFA, new television footage showed the striker spitting at England midfielder Steven Gerrard during a Euro 2004 match last week.Frei, who had strongly denied any wrongdoing, was let off by a UEFA disciplinary commission for lack of evidence on Sunday. However, footage shown by SF DRS television in Switzerland later in the day showed Frei brushing past Gerrard and spitting at the back of his neck.Gerrard wipes the back of his neck while turning to glare at Frei who walks away trying to look innocent. “We are looking at it and will consider whether we should reopen the investigation,” UEFA spokesman William Gaillard said. Italy forward Francesco Totti was banned for three matches last week for spitting at a Denmark player during a Group C match.Switzerland play their final Group B game against France on Monday.
