2006–07 FC Dinamo București season

The 2006-07 season was FC Dinamo București's 58th season in Liga I. Dinamo qualified for the European Spring by beating Beşiktaş and Bayer Leverkusen 2–1 in Bucharest, drawing 1–1 at Club Brugge and losing 3–1 in London to Tottenham Hotspur. In the next round they faced Benfica, but were eliminated after a 0–1 loss at Da Luz and a 1–2 loss at home. Domestically, the team crushed most of its opponents in the first 19 rounds, ending up autumn champions, 13 points ahead of second place. After two spectacular away wins against the rivals, 4–2 with Steaua and 4–1 with Rapid, Dinamo relaxed and let some points slip in other matches.
