Semifinals

The four qualified teams from the first stage were placed into two semifinals labelled "Semifinal A" and "Semifinal B". Each semifinal was played on a home and away basis. The teams that made up each semifinal were determined by their first stage standings: Semifinal A was between the teams that finished 1st and 4th; Semifinal B was between the teams that finished 2nd and 3rd. The team in each semifinal that finished higher in the table played the second leg at home. The winner of each semifinal advanced to the Finals.

Relegation table

edit

Relegation was determined through an average of the points earn in the First Stages of the three season. For the purposes of the table, the 2009 Primera B winner (Cortuluá) entered with the same points as the team that was 16th in the beginning of the season (Real Cartagena). The team with the lowest average was relegated to the Categoría Primera B for the following season, and the team with the next lowest average played a playoff match against the 2010 Primera B runner-up.
