Anton Zemlianukhin (Russian: Антон Землянухин; born 11 December 1988 in Kant) is a footballer who plays striker for Abdish-Ata Kant.

Zemlianukhin signed a five-year contract with TFF First League club Giresunspor at age 16 in August 2007,[1] and he has gone out on loan to Abdish-Ata Kant and FC Taraz to seek more first team football.

Zemlianukhin has made nine appearances for the Kyrgyzstan national football team,[2] including participation in the 2009 Nehru Cup.[3]

He is well known for his ability to take a long throw in, but in a different way to what people may expect. Instead of the conventional run up and throw, Zemlianukhin does a front flip and is able to hurl the ball over half the width of the pitch.

He took Russian citizenship, and he`s not allowed to play for the Kyrgyzstan national football team.
