Football tournament season


The 2020 Copa Colombia, officially the 2020 Copa BetPlay Dimayor for sponsorship reasons, was the 18th edition of the Copa Colombia, the national cup competition for clubs of DIMAYOR. The tournament was contested by 36 teams and began on 19 February 2020. It concluded on 11 February 2021, with the champions qualifying for the 2022 Copa Sudamericana. Independiente Medellín were the defending champions and successfully defended their title by beating Deportes Tolima 5–4 on penalties in the final after tying 1–1 over 90 minutes.

On 13 March 2020, after a meeting with its member clubs, DIMAYOR announced the temporary suspension of the tournament, along with the Primera A and Primera B ones, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] The competition was suspended until 23 September 2020.

Format

The format for the 2020 Copa Colombia was the same one used for the 2018 edition, with the competition being played in a single-elimination format in its entirety, without any group stages. The 16 Categoría Primera B teams entered the competition in the first stage, being drawn into eight ties. After two stages, four Primera B teams qualified for the third stage, along with the twelve Categoría Primera A teams that did not enter international competition in the 2020 season, which entered the cup at that stage. Finally, in the round of 16, the eight third stage winners were joined by the four Copa Libertadores qualifiers (Junior, América de Cali, Deportes Tolima, and Independiente Medellín), as well as the four Copa Sudamericana qualifiers (Deportivo Cali, Atlético Nacional, Millonarios, and Deportivo Pasto), which entered the competition at this point.[2]

Due to the suspension of the competition caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, on 9 September 2020 DIMAYOR announced that, starting from the round of 16, all subsequent stages up to the final would be played as single-legged ties instead of double-legged ones as originally planned. Furthermore, it was confirmed that the champions would qualify for the 2022 Copa Sudamericana, instead of the 2021 Copa Libertadores as originally planned.[3]

Schedule

The schedule of the competition was as follows, with most rounds rescheduled due to the COVID-19 pandemic:[4][5]

Notes

  1. The Real San Andrés v Deportivo Pasto match was originally scheduled for 18 November 2020, 15:00 local time, but was re-scheduled to 25 November 2020, 15:00 local time due to the impact of Hurricane Iota on the Archipelago of San Andrés, Providencia and Santa Catalina.[9]
  2. The Deportes Tolima v Atlético Nacional match was originally scheduled for 14 January 2021, 20:00 local time at Estadio Centenario in Armenia, but was postponed since actions made by the local authorities of Armenia to contain the COVID-19 pandemic did not allow the match to take place, and Deportes Tolima's regular home stadium Estadio Manuel Murillo Toro in Ibagué was temporarily closed for remodeling works.[10] It was rescheduled to 21 January 2021, 15:15 local time at Estadio Manuel Murillo Toro.
