The 2015 Copa Panamá (officially known as Copa Cable Onda Satelital because of its sponsorship with Cable Onda) was the 1st season of the annual Panamanian knockout football cup competition. Thirty-two clubs from the first to the third tier of the Panamanian football league system participated in this year's competition[1] which began on 5 August 2015 with the first of five rounds and ended on 9 December 2015 with the final at the Estadio Maracaná in Panama City.[2]
San Francisco won the final against Chepo 5-4 on penalties, as the match finished 0–0 after extra time, to win their first title.[3]
Format
The Copa Panamá is open to eligible clubs down to the third tier of the Panamanian football league system – all 10 and 14 teams from the Liga Panameña de Fútbol and Liga Nacional de Ascenso respectively participate as well as 8 of the highest ranking amateur teams in the Copa Rommel Fernández tournament based on the results and points they obtained during the FIFA calendar year prior to the start of the cup.[4]
The competition is a 5-round knockout tournament with pairings for each round made in advance; the draw for the whole competition is made before a ball is kicked. Each tie is played as a single leg, with the exception of the two-legged quarter-finals and semi-finals. In the single leg ties clubs from lower-ranking leagues are given field preference when facing opponents from a higher-ranked league. If a match is drawn, extra time is played and in the event of a draw after 120 minutes, a penalty shoot-out is contested.[5]

Notes
- ^ While on 13 May 2015 the club changed its name from Millenium Universidad de Panamá F.C to Asociación Deportiva Municipal de San Miguelito, the change was not officiated by the Panamanian Football Federation until 29 February 2016. Therefore, in official reports Municipal San Miguelito's name appear as Millenium.[6]
- ^ The match was originally scheduled to be played on August 25 (19:00) but due to heavy rain it had to be postponed.[7]
- ^ Due to the lack of stadium lights, after 16 penalty shots the match was suspended as the visibility in the field was poor given that the match was scheduled late in the afternoon. The delegates from the Comité de Competencia (Competition Committee in english) ordered that there was not to be a re-match and the winner had to be decided over a coin-toss which Tauro won to secure their place in the quarter-finals.[8]
