Marcos Llorente and Thomas Partey gave Atletico Madrid a 2-0 win over Getafe on Thursday to keep Diego Simeone's side on course for a third-place finish in LaLiga.
Getafe squandered a number of chances in the first half before Llorente struck eight minutes after the break with a fine finish from 20 yards.
Partey added a second goal when he tapped in from close range after a counterattack with 10 minutes left.
Getafe had Allan Nyom sent off late on for a high challenge as the defeat dented their bid to secure a Europa League place.
