Wayne Rooney has been handed a two-match ban by FIFA for stamping on Ricardo Carvalho in England's World Cup quarter-final defeat by Portugal.
The governing body found the 20-year-old firebrand guilty of violent conduct despite the Football Association and the striker himself arguing his case.
The Manchester United forward will miss England's Euro 2008 qualifiers against Andorra on September 2 at Old Trafford and Macedonia away on September 6.
FIFA also banned Argentine defender Leandro Cufre for four matches and fined him 10,000 Swiss francs for his part in the melee that followed his team's quarter-final exit on penalties to Germany.
His team mate Maxi Rodriguez was banned for two matches and fined 5,000 Swiss francs for his part in the same incident.
