Saulius Mikoliunas has been suspended for Lithuania's next two Euro 2008 qualifying games after UEFA found him guilty of diving to win his country's penalty against Scotland.
The Hearts midfielder threw himself over a challenge from Darren Fletcher, without the Scotland man making contact, and tricked referee Damir Skomina into awarding a spot-kick in the Hampden match on September 8.
Lithuania levelled from the spot but late goals allowed Scotland to win 3-1.
UEFA's control and disciplinary body confirmed Mikoliunas will miss Lithuania's matches against France on October 17 and Ukraine on November 17.
