Missing square bracket here to end the first -- non needed -- Graphics

The following example works as expected:

   f[x_, y_] := Cos[x] + Cos[y]
   g = ContourPlot[f[f1, f2], {f1, -10, 30}, {f2, -10, 30},
      ContourLabels -> Automatic, Contours -> 5, PlotRange -> {-1, 1}];
   pts = Graphics[{Red, PointSize[Large],
       Point[{{5, 5}, {9, 9}, {10, 10}, {20, 20}}]}];
   Show[g, pts]
