The Torneo Federal A is, together with the league Primera B Metropolitana, the third level of football in Argentina. The division has 36 teams who are divided into four zones who play two fixtures against each other for the main league table. The top four teams in each zone move into a multi-staged promotion playoff, the remaining teams into a multi-phase relegation playoff. It’s complicated.
