Neither Rayo nor Getafe could make a telling impact in the first 45 minutes of Monday's clash between the two Madrid outfits, and an uneventful half saw them enter the break at 0-0.
The hosts looked the more threatening team after the break, Victor Rodriguez forcing a couple of half chances and working hard going forward.
The breakthrough came after 58 minutes as Rayo were caught in possession attempting to play the ball out from the back.
Juan Rodriguez fed Victor Rodriguez on the right flank, and his tame delivery across the box was turned into his own net by Jozabed.
The response from Rayo was positive, and in the 72nd minute they were awarded a penalty after Carlos Vigaray's handball.
It was a blatant infringement from the right-back as he looked to prevent the ball from dropping to the lurking Patrick Ebert.
Skipper Roberto Trashorras had his effort from the spot saved, but Jozabed smashed home the rebound having followed up unchecked by any of the home defence.
Three minutes later, Rayo goalkeeper Juan Carlos almost gifted Getafe the lead again, but his terrible fumble from Vigaray's header deflected on to the bar and away from the goal without crossing the line.
The clash petered out to a 1-1 draw, and although Getafe arrested a run of three defeats on the spin, it was an underwhelming result for both sides.
Earlier in the weekend's action, Barcelona's 4-0 drubbing of Real Madrid at the Bernabeu was inarguably the headline result.
The victory moved them six points clear of Real in La Liga as Luis Enrique's side produced one of the performances of the season.
Luis Suarez netted a double, opening the scoring after 11 minutes following a defence-splitting ball from Sergi Roberto and completing the rout deep into the second half with a cool finish.
In between, Neymar clipped home the second before Andres Iniesta powered home from the edge of the box to make it 3-0 eight minutes into the second half.
Per Opta, Neymar was once again the driving force for Barca in a creative capacity and Real's defence simply could not rise to the occasion:
Atletico Madrid took full advantage of their city rivals' defeat by beating Real Betis 1-0 away to move into second in La Liga.
Koke's early strike to end a long barren run in front of goal, per WhoScored.com, was all Diego Simone's men needed as they shut out the hosts:
Celta Vigo lost a second game on the spin as they went down 2-0 away at Deportivo La Coruna, Lucas netting the opener for the hosts ahead of Jonny Castro's late own goal.
They are now tied on points with fourth-placed Villarreal after the Yellow Submarine drew 1-1 with Eibar.
Meanwhile, Real Sociedad briefly eased their relegation worries with an impressive 2-0 win over Sevilla, Imanol Agirretxe and Xabier Prieto netting the goals.
