The Serbian Football Association has confirmed Nikola Ninkovic and Ognjen Mudrinski have been suspended from playing in all national teams for a year, following incidents at the Under-21 international against England in Krusevac on October 16.
England won the Euro 2013 qualifier1-0 after scoring with the last kick of the game. Fighting then broke out between players and officials as soon as the final whistle blew.
"Having reviewed the television footage of the incidents, the FSS disciplinary committee decided to ban Ninkovic and Mudrinski from playing for Serbia at any level for a period of one year," the Serbian FA (FSS) said on Thursday.
"Also, staff members Srdjan Maksimovic and Andreja Milutinovic have been banned from their coaching duties at any level for Serbia for two years. All four have violated the FSS ethics and fair-play code."
England Under-21 left back Danny Rose described how he endured 90 minutes of racist provocation and physical assault – including being pelted with stones – before he was sent off for kicking the ball into the stands during the violent aftermath of England Under-21s' 1-0 win over Serbia on Tuesday.
The FSS have denied the racism charges, which will be decided upon by Uefa when the European governing body's disciplinary committee convenes on Nov 22.
Serbia may face tough sanctions if television footage proves home fans made monkey chants at Rose.
"Over a year ago we gave Croatia and Serbia a serious yellow card, now we will see what the disciplinary committee will decide," Uefa President Michel Platini told reporters at a Euro 2016 meeting in Paris on Tuesday
