2022 Copa Chile

The 2022 Copa Chile (officially known as Copa Chile Easy 2022 due to its sponsorship), was the 42nd edition of the Copa Chile, the country's national football cup tournament. The tournament began on 19 March 2022 and ended on 13 November 2022, with the final match on neutral ground.

Magallanes won their first Copa Chile title, defeating Unión Española 7–6 on penalty kicks after a 2–2 draw in the final. Colo-Colo were the defending champions, but were eliminated by Ñublense in the round of 16.

Format

The 2022 Copa Chile is based on a system of direct elimination with double-legged ties, similar to the Copa del Rey. In the first stage, clubs affiliated to ANFA (those from Tercera A, Tercera B and regional amateur leagues) and clubs from the Segunda División Profesional were paired into 14 ties with the winners and the best loser advancing to the second stage, in which those 15 teams were joined by the 17 Primera B clubs. In the third stage, the 16 second stage winners faced the 16 Primera División clubs which entered the competition at that point. The first and second stages, as well as the final, were played as single-legged ties, whilst the remaining rounds (third stage, round of 16, quarter-finals and semi-finals) were played under a double-legged format. VAR was implemented for the semi-finals and final.

Prizes

The champions of this edition were entitled to earn the right to compete in the 2023 Copa Libertadores, taking the ''Chile 4'' berth, and also earned the right to play the 2023 Supercopa de Chile against the 2022 Campeonato Nacional champions.
