FC Dinamo București 1993–94 football season
The 1993–94 season was FC Dinamo București 's 45th season in Divizia A . Dinamo started the season with a terrible loss against greatest rivals Steaua, on home soil and continued with poor results, ending the season with 11 losses.
The match against Progresul, in September, ended 1-1, but Dinamo was punished with a forfeit with a 3–0 loss due to threatening or abuse from the players or coaches against the referees.
In Europe, Dinamo was eliminated in the first round of the UEFA Cup.
The season ended in April to allow the national team to prepare the 1994 FIFA World Cup . After the season, the teams from Divizia A, without the national players, entered the newly-formed League Cup. Dinamo reached the regional final, but lost against Rapid who eventually beat UTA in the competition final.
