GNK Dinamo Zagreb in European football
This article lists results for GNK Dinamo Zagreb in European competition. After winning the first post-war Zagreb municipal championship held in January and February 1946 and finishing runners-up in the Croatian regional championship (behind Hajduk Split), they qualified for the nationwide 1946–47 Yugoslav First League. The club spent their entire existence playing top-flight football, and they soon established themselves as one of the Yugoslav Big Four (along with Hajduk Split, Partizan and Red Star Belgrade), finishing runners-up in the inaugural season of the national championship, and then winning Yugoslav titles in 1948, 1954 and 1958. They were the third Yugoslav club to play in an UEFA-sponsored competition (after Partizan in 1955 and Red Star in 1956) and their first European Cup tie was against Czechoslovak side Dukla Prague in 1958. In the 1960s Dinamo experienced their most successful period in both domestic and European football which saw them win four Yugoslav Cups but failing to clinch a single championship title, finishing runners-up five times between 1960 and 1969. On the European stage, the club had two successful campaigns in the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup, reaching the finals on two occasions. In the 1963 final Dinamo lost to Valencia, but in 1967 they beat England's Leeds United. This was the only European silverware won by a Yugoslav club until Red Star Belgrade won the 1990–91 European Cup 24 years later. Dinamo in Europe
