about

On 14 May, 1948, "Unirea Tricolor MAI" — newly entered, in January 1948, under the umbrella of the Internal Affairs Ministry — merged with "Ciocanul Bucuresti" and formed "Dinamo Bucuresti", the sporting club representing the above-mentioned institution. Until the end of the championship, Dinamo was going to be represented by two teams: "Ciocanul" ("Hammer"), named "Dinamo A" and "Unirea Tricolor MAI", known as "Dinamo B" (this last one relegating, at the end of the football season, into the second Division B). Starting in 1950, Dinamo A was separated from Dinamo B, the latter being transferred first to Brasov, then to Cluj, and eventually - in 1958 - settling in Bacau. Dinamo Bucuresti was going to follow its Communist destiny at the highest football level. The "Dinamo" name was used for the very first time on 1 May, 1948. Nevertheless, the real debut of Dinamo was on the 1947-1948 championship edition (finishing 7th). Some of the team's players were Ambru, Angelo Niculescu, Teodorescu, Siclovan, Bartha, Sârbu. On July 14, 1948 Dinamo played its first international match against Zidnice (Czechoslovakia): 4 to 1 for the red-whites.
