2025 Copa Colombia


The 2025 Copa Colombia, officially the Copa BetPlay Dimayor 2025 for sponsorship reasons, was the 23rd edition of the Copa Colombia, the national cup competition for clubs affiliated to Dimayor, the governing body of professional club football in Colombia. The tournament, which was contested by the 36 Dimayor member clubs, began on 28 May and ended on 17 December 2025.
The defending champions Atlético Nacional won their eighth Copa Colombia title in this tournament, and third in a row, after defeating Independiente Medellín 1–0 on aggregate in the finals. By winning the competition, Atlético Nacional qualified for the 2026 Copa Sudamericana.

Format

For this edition, the competition had a change in its format to allow the teams that failed to advance to the final stages of Dimayor's league tournaments to maintain competitive pace and reduce their mid-season downtime. The first stage of the competition was split into Stage 1A and Stage 1B, with Stage 1A featuring the 12 Categoría Primera A and the 8 Categoría Primera B teams that did not advance to the semi-finals of their league tournament, which were distributed into four groups of five teams according to their position in the first stage of the league. In each group, teams had one bye day and played two matches at home and two away, with the top two advancing to the round of 16. Subsequently, Stage 1B was contested by the 16 teams that advanced to the semi-finals of the Primera A and Primera B tournaments, which were allocated into eight ties according to their position in the first stage of the league, with the eight winners advancing to the round of 16. The round of 16 was played by the eight teams advancing from Stage 1A and the eight Stage 1B winners, in which the teams coming from Stage 1A played the Stage 1B winners in eight two-legged ties. The winners advanced to the subsequent knockout stages of the competition. Unlike the previous editions, no draws were performed for any phase of the competition.
