Yuta Minami (南 雄太, born 30 September 1979)[1] is a Japanese football player who currently plays for Yokohama FC in J2 League.[2]
National team career
In June 1997, when Minami was a Shizuoka Gakuen School student, he was elected Japan U-20 national team for 1997 World Youth Championship and he played 4 matches. In April 1999, he was elected U-20 Japan for 1999 World Youth Championship second time. At this tournament, he played full time in all 7 matches and Japan won the 2nd place.
Mistake
Minami became one of the few goalkeepers in football history managing to score an own goal against Sanfrecce Hiroshima in a J. League match on 22 May 2004. He had gathered the ball and originally planned to throw the ball at first, but he paused and lost control, hurling the ball back into the net to the disbelief of his Kashiwa teammates. The goal wouldn't matter, as Kashiwa lost three goals to nil.[3][4]
