Zaha had already accepted the charge but requested a personal hearing with the FA's disciplinary panel after he made a gesture towards Leeds fans during the 2-2 draw at Selhurst Park on March 9.

The ban comes into immediate effect, ruling Zaha out of Palace's home game with Birmingham on March 29 when Championship football resumes after the international break.

Eagles manager Ian Holloway had already accepted a charge of improper conduct relating the same game for comments made to match officials after the final whistle.

Lesson learned this week from the FA: Don't stick your finger up to thousands of guys abusing you....instead go in recklessly-knee-high-studs up on the opponent and you walk away smelling like roses.
