Jorge Molina's penalty in the sixth minute of time added-on helped Getafe avoid defeat but they failed to regain fourth spot in La Liga following a 2-2 draw at struggling Real Valladolid.
Mauro Arambarri's strike for Getafe after 14 minutes was cancelled out on the half hour by Sergi Guardiola while Valladolid were given a boost when Mathias Olivera was sent off after the interval.
Enes Unal's 69th-minute penalty seemed set to give Valladolid all three points for a win that would have kept them out of the bottom three but Molina struck from the spot in the dying seconds.
