A keyword always has higher priority than a match or region, the
keyword is used if more than one item matches. Keywords do not nest
and a keyword can't contain anything else.
So no, you cannot give the match precedence.
But it looks like you can use :syn clear fooGroup as suggested, prior
to the :syn match command.
