A330 Pitch Up on Touchdown

To the A330 gurus:

I have noticed a few times the nose pitching up after touchdown. I looked closely at a recent landing. Commenced flare at around 35 feet, closed thrust levers, good touchdown rear bogies then a deflare and idle reverse, into full reverse, nose then suddenly pitched up a few degrees requiring more nose down control.. I don't believe that that I am applying any back pressure on stick. Could this pitch up be caused by gnd spoiler deployment. Probably just need more deflare. Any idea's.
