NK Dinamo Zagreb, commonly referred to as Dinamo Zagreb (Croatian pronunciation: [dinamɔ ˈzâːɡrɛb]), or by their nickname Modri (Croatian pronunciation: [mɔːdri]) is a Croatian football club based in Zagreb. They playing their home matches at the 37,168-capacity Stadion Maksimir. They are the most successful club in Croatian football, having won twelve Croatian championship titles, ten Croatian Cups and four Croatian Supercups. The club has spent its entire existence in top flight, having been members of the Yugoslav First League from 1946 to 1991, and then the Prva HNL since its foundation in 1992. Dinamo is also a founding member of the European Club Association.

Dinamo was founded on 9 June 1945 in order to replace the three very popular Zagreb football clubs (HAŠK, Građanski and Concordia) which were disbanded by the Yugoslav Communist Party following the end of WWII. The newly established Dinamo then entered the Yugoslav First League in its inaugural season, finishing as runners-up. The following 1947–48 season they finished as Yugoslav champions which was their first major trophy. The club won three more league titles and seven Yugoslav Cups before they left the Yugoslav league in 1991 due to the breakup of Yugoslavia and formation of the Croatian football league system. Dinamo are the only Croatian football club that have ever won a European competition, defeating Leeds United in the 1967 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup Final, and had also reached the final of the same competition in 1963 when they lost to Spanish side Valencia.

The team's traditional colour is royal blue, which has been replaced in recent times with the darker navy blue. The club's biggest rivals are Hajduk Split, and matches between the two teams are referred to as "Eternal derby". The current head coach of the club is Vahid Halilhodžić who took over from Velimir Zajec on 16 August 2010. Dinamo are currently the reigning Croatian champions having won their fifth consecutive Prva HNL title in the 2009–10 season.

History

Origins and early years (1945–1966)

In the immediate aftermath of World War II, the three most successful Zagreb clubs (HAŠK, Građanski and Concordia) were disbanded by a decree issued by the communist authorities in June 1945. In order to replace them, a new municipal club called FD Dinamo was founded on 9 June 1945. The new club inherited Građanski's colors and fan base, with most of Građanski's players continuing their careers at Dinamo.[1] In the beginning, the club played their home matches at Građanski's Stadion Koturaška, but soon moved to former HAŠK's ground at Stadion Maksimir. In addition, former manager of Građanski Márton Bukovi was appointed as Dinamo's first manager. The most notable Građanski players who joined Dinamo upon its formation were August Lešnik, Mirko Kokotović and Franjo Wölfl. Of the HAŠK players that joined Dinamo, the regulars in the first team soon became Ratko Kacian, Željko Čajkovski, Svetozar Peričić and Dragutin Lojen.

Following its formation, the club entered Yugoslav First League in its first season after the World War II hiatus. In their debut Dinamo finished in second place, 5 points behind champions Partizan. Dinamo won their first silverware in the 1947–48 season, finishing first–placed in the Yugoslav championship with 5 points ahead of Hajduk Split and Partizan. In the 1951 season the club finished second–placed in the league, but compensated with their first ever Yugoslav Cup title, after they defeated Vojvodina 4–0 in the two–legged final. Dinamo later added three more cup titles (in 1960, 1963 and 1965) and two championship wins (in 1953–54 and 1957–58). In addition, they were also cup runners–up on three occasions (in 1950, 1964 and 1966).[1] Dinamo first entered European competitions in the preliminary round of the 1958–59 European Cup, but were knocked out by the Czechoslovak side Dukla Prague. The club then had some success in the 1960–61 European Cup Winners' Cup, as they managed to reach the semi-finals where they lost to Italian side Fiorentina. They have also competed in the 1961–62 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup, but failed to progress beyond the second round in which they were knocked out by Barcelona. However, in the 1962–63 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup Dinamo managed to reach the final, but lost 4–1 on aggregate to Spanish side Valencia. The campaign included a sensational win against European giants Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals of the competition. In the 1963–64 European Cup Winners' Cup they made an early exit in the first round after a defeat to Scottish side Celtic. During this period many of Dinamo's star players were also integral part of the Yugoslavia national team, including Željko Čajkovski, Dražan Jerković, Ivica Horvat, Slaven Zambata and Rudolf Belin.

Inter-Cities Fairs Cup (1966–1967)

Three Yugoslavian clubs went on to participate in the 1966–67 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup, but they were knocked–out early in the competition, excluding Dinamo who went on to become the first ever Yugoslavian team that won a European competition. In the first round Dinamo played against Spartak Brno and after the aggregate score was 2–2, coin was flipped in order to determine the winner. Dinamo was through to the second round, where they were drawn against Scottish side Dunfermline. For the first time in the history of the cup the away goals rule were introduced, which helped Dinamo to qualify for the third round after the aggregate score was 4–4 (2–0 at home and 2–4 away). On their road to finals they defeated Romanian side Dinamo Piteşti, Italian powerhouse Juventus and German side Eintracht Frankfurt. In the finals the club was draw to play its first match at Maksimir against Leeds. Dinamo won 2–0 in front of the 33 thousand fans with Marijan Čerček and Krasnodar Rora scoring, which was enough to secure the title as the match at Elland Road finished 0–0.[2]

Post–European success era (1967–2000)

Dinamo closed the successful sixties with Yugoslav Cup title in the 1969 and quarterfinals of the 1969–70 Cup Winners' Cup competition. Unfortunately, the success didn't follow the club to the new decade, as they failed to win a single trophy throughout the 1970s. The club participated in three more seasons of Inter-Cities Fairs Cup before it was replaced with UEFA Cup, but failed to make any impact. Dinamo took part of the initial UEFA Cup season, but lost in the second round of the competition to Rapid Vienna on away goals rule. The club entered the UEFA Cup on seven more occasions (in 1976, 1977, 1979, 1988, 1989, 1990 and 1992) but never repeated success from the sixties. Finally, at the start of the 1980s, Dinamo won their sixth Yugoslav Cup title, defeating Red Star Belgrade 2–1 on aggregate result. They qualified for the 1980–81 Cup Winners' Cup, but lost already in first round to Benfica. In 1982 Dinamo sealed their fourth Yugoslav championship. In 1983 they won their seventh Yugoslav Cup which was the club's last trophy in the SFR Yugoslavia. After Benfica, another Portuguese club sealed Dinamo's European season, this time in 1982–83 European Cup when they lost to Sporting CP. They played in 1983–84 Cup Winners' Cup season and were eliminated, again, by Portuguese side Porto. The club didn't have any success in the second part of the 1980s, except two consecutive second–places in Yugoslavian championship in 1989 and 1990.

1990s Croatia Zagreb Era

After the SFR Yugoslavia was dissolved, Dinamo took part in creating the Croatian Football League and the initial season was played in 1992. The same year club controversially changed its name to HAŠK Građanski, and another name change followed in 1993, when the club was renamed to Croatia Zagreb. The name change was widely seen as a political move by the leadership of then newly independent Croatia, with the goal of distancing the entire country from its Communist past. As the name change was also never accepted by their supporters, the club renamed themselves back to Dinamo on 14 February 2000. As Croatia Zagreb, the club has won six Croatian championships, of which five were won in a row from 1996 to 2000. They've also won four Croatian Cup titles.[1]

In the late 1990s, the club played two consecutive seasons in the UEFA Champions League group stage. In the 1998–99 season, they were drawn in a group with Ajax, Olympiacos and Porto. After disappointing performances in the first three matches in which they managed to draw against Ajax at home and lost their away matches against Olympiacos and Porto, they performed well in the remaining three matches, beating Porto at home and Ajax away, and drawing to Olympiacos away. However, they failed to advance to the quarterfinals with as a second–placed team. In the 1999–2000 season, they were drawn in a group with defending champions Manchester United, Marseille and Sturm Graz, but managed only a fourth–place finish in the group with two draws and one win. They most notably held Manchester United to a goalless draw at Old Trafford in their opening Champions League match that season. The club also competed in two consecutive seasons of UEFA Cup. In 1996 they were knocked–out in the second round, while in the 1998 they managed to reach the third round, but lost to Atlético Madrid 2–1 on aggregate score.

Recent years (2000–present)

The club subsequently participated five times in the third qualifying round of the Champions League, in 2000, 2003, 2006, 2007 and 2008. However, they played against Milan, Dynamo Kyiv, Arsenal, Werder Bremen, Shakhtar Donetsk and failed to win a single match, losing 6–1 on aggregate to Milan, 5–1 on aggregate to Dynamo Kiev, Shakhtar Donetsk and Arsenal and 5–3 on aggregate to Werder Bremen. Since the qualifying rounds format changed, Dinamo was unable to get through to the play–off round, losing 3–2 on aggregate to FC Red Bull Salzburg in 2009. Before the UEFA Cup group stage phase was introduced, Dinamo's best success in the competition was reaching the second round of the competition on three occasions. They were able to reach the group stages in 2004–05, 2007–08 and 2008–09, but failed to secure qualification to round of 32. UEFA then introduced Europa League competition which had slightly changed format compared to that of the UEFA Cup. Dinamo was able to qualify for the group stage of the initial 2009–10 Europa League season, after beating Scottish side Hearts 4–2 on aggregate. In domestic competitions the club was able to secure five league titles and won the Croatian Cup on six occasions. They have also won four Croatian Supercups. The club has also produced many footballing talents that represented Croatia on the international level in the 2000s. The most notable are Luka Modrić, Eduardo, Vedran Ćorluka, Niko Kranjčar and Tomislav Butina.

Grounds

Maksimir Stadium.

Dinamo's home ground is Stadion Maksimir, which is situated in the northeast part of the city of Zagreb, opposite the largest city park Maksimir which is also the name of that district.[3] It was officially opened on 5 May 1912 and has been reconstructed several times since then.[4] The seats were installed on the east and south stand in 1997 and a year later, the old north and east stands were pulled down. Newly built north stand with capacity of 10,965 seats also has business offices. The whole stadium was reconstructed just before the opening ceremony of the Military World Games in 1999.[4]

The spectators are placed on four stands: north, east, west and south. All of them are exclusively all-seaters, and there are no standing places on the stadium. There is a total of 36,452 uncovered seats and 716 covered seats in VIP suits on the west stand, making a total capacity of 37,168 seated places.[4]

The final phase of the reconstruction included lowering the lawn and making a stand around the pitch over the running track with an annex to the south stand which would add another 16,000 seats to the capacity. This will make Stadion Maksimir an exclusively football stadium with approximately 60,000 seats and thus the club will be given opportunity to host final matches of European club championships.[4]

The start of the planned reconstruction works were anticipated in 2008, with completion deadlines set as early as 2010, but works never got started.[5] By now, the city of Zagreb has reportedly spent around €100 million on maintenance of the stadium.[6] The stadium became a huge problem for the city council who are planning a referendum where the citizens of Zagreb would decide whether to continue with the reconstruction of Stadion Maksimir, or to build the brand new Stadion Kajzerica.[7]

Supporters

Bad Blue Boys tifo display.

Although the club had an army of supporters throughout the history, its first organized group of followers emerged in 1986. The most faithful and eager followers established the group Bad Blue Boys (often abbrevated BBB). As legend has it, the name was inspired by the 1983 film Bad Boys starring Sean Penn in the main role.[8] The group aroused a great interest and BBB branches started appearing in all parts of Zagreb. The fans soon started organizing departures to visiting matches themselves to voice their support for the club.[8]

In the early 1990s the first official fan club Bad Blue Boys was founded.[8] Since its formation, the BBB traditionally situate on the north stand of Stadion Maksimir.[9] During the Croatian War of Independence the fans offered their support to Franjo Tuđman and the HDZ in Croatia's first elections[10] and a lot of them were also the soldiers of Croatian Army or in the police forces that defended the country during the war.[8] The monument Shrine to the Croatia Knights was built below the west stand of Stadion Maksimir to honour all of Dinamo fans who have died on the battle fields.[8]

The BBB are often accused for hooliganism,[11][12][13][14] which resulted in both UEFA and Croatian Football Federation disciplinary bodies penalize Dinamo on several occasions.[15][16][17] These incidents are caused by minor number of hooligans who are constantly accused for causing material damage, fights with police forces, flare throwing and racism.[12][14][16][18][19] Despite all those incidents, the BBB are praised among the other fans for their constant and loud support during Dinamo's matches.[18]

Rivalries

Dinamo's biggest rivals are Hajduk Split, and the matches between the two teams are referred to as "Eternal derby".[20] Former major rivalries used to include Serbian clubs Red Star Belgrade and Partizan.[1] Despite playing in the same division as Dinamo, and being from same city, NK Zagreb are not considered major rivals by the fans.[9]
