Nguyễn Minh Nhựt (born 28 March 1986) is a Vietnamese footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Bắc Ninh.
Club career
Minh Nhựt grabbed attention when in Long An's V.League 1 game against Ho Chi Minh City on 19 February 2017 the referee awarded the opposing team a penalty in stoppage time of the game with the score tied at 2–2. In protest of the referee's decision Minh Nhựt made no attempt to save the resulting spot kick even turning his back to the penalty taker. Following that Minh Nhựt and the other Long An players made no attempt to stop TP Ho Chi Minh City from scoring another two goals in a match which ended 5–2. Following the incident, Minh Nhựt received a two-year ban from playing by the Vietnam Football Federation, but the sanction was later reduced to one year.
