Bayern Munich's Jerome Boateng has been handed a three-match ban following his sending-off against Schalke 04 in the Bundesliga.
The German Football Association (DFB) has reviewed the defender's foul on Sidney Sam and decided to impose a suspension for "unsportsmanlike conduct".
The governing body said in a statement: "The DFB Disciplinary Board have been advised by the DFB's Supervisory Committee to hand FC Bayern Munich's Jerome Boateng a ban of three Bundesliga games for unsportsmanlike conduct.
"Boateng was sent off in the 17th minute by referee Bastian Dankert Rostock of Bayern's Bundesliga game against FC Schalke 04 on February 3 2015."
Bayern have 24 hours to appeal against the ruling.
