      • The 2015 Copa Colombia, officially the 2015 Copa Águila for sponsorship reasons, was the 13th edition of the Copa Colombia, the national cup competition for clubs of DIMAYOR. It began on 18 February and ended on 19 November. The tournament comprised a total of 36 teams, and the winner, Junior, who defeated Santa Fe 2–1 on aggregate score in the final, earned a berth to the 2016 Copa Sudamericana.


      Format


      Unlike the previous seven Copa Colombia editions, the 2015 competition featured a change in its format. According to the format approved by DIMAYOR at its Extraordinary Assembly on October 7, 2014, the first stage was played by 32 teams, which were split into eight groups of four teams each on a regional basis, where teams played each other of the teams in their group twice. The 8 group winners plus the best 4 second-placed teams joined the teams qualified for the 2015 Copa Libertadores (Atlético Nacional, Santa Fe, and Once Caldas) and the 2014 aggregate table best team not qualified for the Copa Libertadores (Águilas Doradas) in the round of 16, from where the cup continued on a home-and-away knockout basis.

      Knockout phase


      Each tie in the knockout phase is played in home-and-away two-legged format. In each tie, the team which has the better overall record up to that stage host the second leg, except in the round of 16 where the group winners automatically host the second leg. In case of a tie in aggregate score, neither the away goals rule nor extra time is applied, and the tie is decided by a penalty shoot-out. Atlético Nacional, Santa Fe, Once Caldas, and Águilas Doradas entered the competition in the Round of 16, being joined there by the eight group winners and the four best second-placed teams.
