Vienna - Beer in the Vienna fan zone sold between nine in the morning and two o'clock in the afternoon has been reduced by a euro in an effort to boost flagging sales, the APA newsagency reported Tuesday.

The decision to reduce the price to 3.50 was made after complaints were made by vendors about the lack of turnover, the dpa reported.

While the Vienna fan zone was crammed with 84,300 fans Sunday for the games between Austria and Croatia and the Germany-Austria clash, there were just 17,500 present on Monday with the games taking place in neighbouring Switzerland, which is co-hosting the event.
