Tom Butler rescued Swansea City against 10-man Luton Town with a late winner.
Struggling Luton frustrated League One's runaway leaders but Butler's 79th-minute strike extended Swansea's unbeaten league run to 17 games.
Luton defended resiliently as they looked to spoil Roberto Martinez's one- year anniversary as Swansea manager.
But Sol Davis' dismissal in the 69th minute after a foul on Butler proved crucial as, after hitting the woodwork, the ex-Irish international settled it.
