Wayne Rooney will miss the Euro 2012 group stage after being banned for three matches for his sending off against Montenegro.
Uefa's disciplinary panel decided on the punishment for next summer's tournament in Poland and Ukraine at a meeting on Thursday.
The striker, 25, was sent off for kicking Miodrag Dzudovic in the 2-2 draw in Podgorica last Friday.
The Football Association is set to launch an appeal against the ban.
In the Premier League, the punishment for violent conduct is an automatic three-match ban.
But Uefa's policy is to suspend the player for one game, with a panel deciding on a case-by-case basis what, if any, additional punishment there should be.
Instead of issuing a longer ban, Uefa had the option to hand out a warning or a fine
Officials take into account the referee's report, representations from the player and national body and the player's disciplinary history.
Rooney was sent off in the World Cup quarter-final against Portugal in 2006 after appearing to stamp on the groin of Ricardo Carvalho and then push former Manchester United team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo.
Referee Wolfgang Stark put in his report that the former Everton man left the pitch in Montenegro without contesting the decision.
England manager Fabio Capello has said he may leave Rooney out of upcoming friendlies to study alternative attacking options.
West Ham United manager Sam Allardyce believes England will get through to the knockout stages despite Rooney's ban.
"They would miss him but not to the point that it would cost them going further than the group stages," he said.
Allardyce believes Rooney must pay the price for his "silly" sending off.
"It's disappointing but at the end of the day football players on the field cannot always be angels," he added.
"Sometimes they can lose their cool and do things in an instinctive moment that they can't control and they suffer the consequences after.
"They always regret what they have done when it's something as silly as what Wayne did but it happens. It's a part of his character and a part of his make up.
"It's just a blip I would hope and the good thing is it didn't cost England anything."
