Garbage points

Garbage points are points scored in the final minutes of a heavily one-sided game that serve no real purpose other than to pad the losing team's final score and make the loss less embarrassing.
The football team scored some garbage points in the last five minutes of the fourth quarter even though they were losing by more than 30.
