Jake Carroll has been hit with a two match ban for a poor tackle in Motherwell’s draw with Livingston.
The defender was booked at the time but the compliance officer offered him a two match ban after deciding it was serious foul play.
They could have taken the decision to a hearing on Thursday but Motherwell and Carroll both decided to accept it.
The incident happened in the final minute of the game with Carroll taking a poor touch before flying into a challenge with Livingston defender Nicky Devlin.
The Irishman also hurt himself in the incident but both players were able to finish the game.
The 27-year-old will now miss games against Celtic and Hearts.
Carroll only joined Motherwell in the summer from Cambridge United and previously had a loan spell at Partick Thistle.
He played in three of the four Betfred Cup matches before making his Premiership debut on Saturday.
