Monday Recap
The first hour of Monday's clash was slightly underwhelming, but the game burst into life when Getafe were awarded a penalty in the 64th minute for a Jordi Amat handball.
Portillo stepped up and attempted to put it to Adan's right, but the Betis stopper got down well to keep it out.
However, he palmed it back into Portillo's path, and the Spaniard looked sure to convert the rebound only for Adan to produce another remarkable stop to put the ball behind, per Spanish football writer Sid Lowe:
Getafe were on top and again nearly went ahead in the 73rd minute when Vitorino Antunes' curling free-kick beat the wall and the goalkeeper and struck the inside of the post.
It seemed certain the ball would sneak its way into the goal, but instead it bounced across the line and stayed out.
Substitute Leon then produced the knockout blow as he converted Antonio Barragan's cross from the right following a brilliant counter-attack.
The right-back surged down the flank and found Leon in the box. He had made space by checking his run, and his first-time finish from 11 yards nestled in the back of the net.
Getafe just had time to carve out one more opportunity from a corner, and Cabrera's looping header initially looked to have crossed the line after hitting the post.
The officials, though, decided Adan had hooked it out in time, and Betis claimed a crucial 1-0 victory.
