Independiente Medellín were the defending champions, having won the competition in its two most recent editions. They were eliminated by Deportivo Cali in the round of 16.
The format for the 2021 Copa Colombia was the same one used for the 2018 and 2020 editions, 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 ten Categoría Primera A teams that did not enter international competition in the 2021 season, which entered the cup at that stage. Finally, in the round of 16, the seven third stage winners were joined by the four Copa Libertadores qualifiers (América de Cali, Santa Fe, Junior, and Atlético Nacional), the four Copa Sudamericana qualifiers (Deportes Tolima, La Equidad, Deportivo Pasto, and Deportivo Cali), and Águilas Doradas as the best Primera A team that did not qualify for international competition in 2021, which entered the competition at this point. Unlike the previous edition, in which ties from the round of 16 onwards were played as single legs due to the schedule disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, in this edition all rounds were played on a double-legged basis.[1]
The schedule of the competition was as follows:[2]
Round | Draw date | First leg | Second leg |
---|---|---|---|
First stage | 2 March 2021[3] | 10–11 and 18 March 2021 | 17–18 and 25 March 2021 |
Second stage | 14–15 April 2021 | 21–22 April 2021 | |
Third stage | 28–29 July and 4 August 2021 | 4–5 and 18 August 2021 | |
Round of 16 | 19 August 2021[4] | 25–26 August 2021 | 1–2 September 2021 |

Each tie in the knockout stage was played in a home-and-away two-legged format. In each tie, the team which has the better overall record up to that stage hosted the second leg, except for the round of 16 where the third stage winners hosted the second leg. The teams entering the competition at this stage were the ones that qualified for the 2021 Copa Libertadores and 2021 Copa Sudamericana, as well as the best team in the Primera A aggregate table that did not qualify for either competition, which were drawn into each of the eight ties. In case of a tie on aggregate score, extra time was not played and the winner was decided in a penalty shoot-out.
