The 2021 Copa Paraguay was the third edition of the Copa Paraguay, Paraguay's domestic football cup competition. Originally known as the 2020 Copa Paraguay, the competition was scheduled to start on 14 April 2020 and conclude in late 2020, with the winners qualifying for the 2021 Copa Sudamericana as well as the 2020 Supercopa Paraguay against the Primera División champions with better record in the aggregate table. ^[1]

The competition was suspended indefinitely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. On 9 July 2020, Paraguayan Football Association's Chief of Competitions Michael Sánchez stated that it would be postponed to 2021 with the same qualified teams given the unavailability of stadiums in the departments of Paraguay as well as the lack of dates to reschedule the competition in the remainder of 2020. As a result, the berth to the 2021 Copa Sudamericana was passed to the best team in the Primera División season that failed to qualify for international competition. ^[2] The decision to suspend the competition was confirmed by the APF on 11 September 2020. ^[3]

On 15 January 2021, the APF confirmed that the Copa Paraguay would be resumed in 2021, with this edition keeping the same format and fixture elaborated for the 2020 edition. ^[4] On 15 July 2021, the APF announced that the competition would start on 27 July 2021. ^[5]

Olimpia won their first Copa Paraguay title, beating Sol de América on penalties after a 2–2 draw over 90 minutes in the final. ^[6] The winners qualified for the 2021 Supercopa Paraguay against the Primera División champions with better record in the aggregate table, with runners-up Sol de América qualifying for the 2022 Copa Sudamericana since Olimpia had already qualified for international competition on league performance. Libertad were the defending champions but were defeated by Olimpia in the semi-finals.

Format

64 teams took part, with the competition keeping the same format used in the previous edition. ^[7] The competition is played as a single-elimination tournament, with all teams directly qualifying for the first round, where they were drawn into 32 single-legged ties. Ties in all rounds will be played as a single game, with a penalty shootout deciding the winner in case of a draw.
