Steven Gerrard street brawl L A Galaxy Liverpool FC <br />ENGLAND football legend Steven Gerrard appears to throw a punch during a street brawl captured on CCTV outside a bar. <br /> <br />The ex-Liverpool ace, 35, seems to aim two punches at Paul Lloyd as an argument spills out of control on the pavement. <br /> <br />His glamorous wife Alex, dressed in heels, can also be seen as part of the melee. <br /> <br />A court previously heard testimony that the LA Galaxy midfielder was trying to defuse the ruck. <br /> <br />Prosecutor Richard Haworth told a court: “Mr Gerrard was seeking to avoid any involvement or any form of aggression or confrontation, and as far as he was concerned was attempting to defuse the situation.” <br /> <br />The Sun on Sunday understands that three people were interviewed under caution on suspicion of affray earlier this year. <br /> <br />However no action was taken against despite Merseyside Police “reviewing” CCTV and discussing it with the CPS. <br /> <br />At the time of the flare-up, Gerrard was the England captain at the beginning of the season running up to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. <br /> <br />The FA has a strict code of conduct which insists that England stars act as “role models” and the Reds star previously spoke of the importance of respecting the Three Lions captaincy. <br /> <br />Gerrard clashed with hotel owner Lloyd, 35, in the street after an argument in Woodward’s Winebar, in Liverpool’s upmarket Formby area, on August 4, 2013. <br /> <br />The Sun On Sunday has obtained CCTV of the incident – which was not shown at a subsequent court trial where Gerrard was portrayed by prosecutors as a peacemaker. <br /> <br />A friend of Lloyd explained: “Paul was out in the evening with a mate and went to Woodward’s for a quick drink. Steven and Alex were in there with a big party. <br /> <br />“Paul, who lived near Gerrard, got chatting to him. It was the day after Gerrard had played his testimonial game against Olympiakos which Liverpool won 2-0. <br /> <br />“There was a disagreement and Paul left.”
