Bolton Wanderers midfielder Jay Matete has been handed a three-match ban for violent conduct.
The FA has handed out this punishment for an incident in the 91st minute of Tuesday's home defeat to Charlton Athletic.
On loan from Sunderland, Matete, 23, was booked by referee Jacob Miles, but that has now been upgraded after the footage was watched again with Matete appearing to stamp on a Charlton player.
He accepted the charge and will now miss Bolton's matches against Huddersfield Town, Northampton Town and Reading.
