After 23 games of the season Paul Inniss' 4ytry suffered their first defeat in the Premiership to a battling Relegation Fodder team that have not yet given up hope of snatching the title away from the early season favourites.
The goal that decided the game came in the 53rd minute, a lovely passing move involving Naldo, Banega and Caio created an opening for mis-firing striker Keirrison on the edge of the penalty area and, despite having a poor season so far, the Brazilian striker expertly despatched the opportunity past the helpless De Gea.
It could have been a very different story had Marcel Risse's brilliant lobbed goal not been ruled out for offside shortly before half time, but despite their defeat here 4ytry are still odds on to retain the Premiership for a third successive season. With just 9 games left to play 4ytry would need to drop at least 6 points for Relegation Fodder to catch them -- but they would have to win all their remaining games this season, which is a tall order given their remaining fixtures.
