Irish fans hold whip around for mugged Austrians

Irish fans have pulled together to help out two Austrian fans who were mugged in Dublin yesterday.

The two had their money and their match tickets stolen while on their way to the Guinness Storehouse.

However, as word of the incident spread on Twitter and Facebook, Irish fans were quick to offer help to the beleaguered Austrians.

Irish fans on the You Boys In Green forums called for a whip around to replace the money that was stolen and the FAI has since stepped in and replaced both tickets.

It is understood the money pledged has now surpassed the money stolen - with the rest set to be donated to charity.

This afternoon, the Ireland Fans Embassy confirmed that there was a happy ending to the story.

"Fans from YBIG are clubbing together in a couple of our usual watering holes and a sizeable collection will be made for them.

"In addition, last night one of the YBIG posters met up with the lads and they were in a bar supping pints and recovering from their ordeal. All's well that ends well, thanks again to the FAI and the quintessential decency from Irish fans on this issue. Brilliant."
