The Copa Verde (Template:Langx) is an annual regional knockout football competition in Brazil that started in 2014, and played by 24 teams from the North and Central-West regions, plus Espírito Santo (Espírito Santo state was included because they competed in the old Copa Centro Oeste).[1][2]
Initially, the champion of the tournament gained a place in the next year's Copa Sudamericana. With the changes implemented by CONMEBOL in 2016, the winners no longer qualify for the Copa Sudamericana.[3] The champion will now have a spot in the third round of the Copa do Brasil of the following year. The cup is organized by the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF), with two-legged playoff games played from between the 24 participating teams.[2]
History
The tournament was created with the purpose of making a version of the Copa do Nordeste for the Northern Region of Brazil, hence the name Verde, meaning green, is an allusion to the Amazon Rainforest.[1] The competition was expanded to include clubs from the Central-West Region and from Espírito Santo state (as the state competed in the defunct Copa Centro-Oeste).[4] The competition was officially announced in September by the competitions director of the Brazilian Football Confederation.[5]
From 2026 onwards, the Copa Verde will be played in a supercup format between the winners of the Copa Centro-Oeste and the Copa Norte.[6]

Note 2: On July 28, 2014, the 2014 Copa Verde title was awarded to Paysandu, due to irregularities on the squad of Brasília.[7] Brasília appealed against this decision and obtained a suspension which reversed this decision temporarily.[8] A final decision by the Superior Court of Sports Justice (STJD) declared Brasília as the champion.[9]
