The Eurovision Song Contest final line-up is complete. Finnish rockers The Rasmus were among the 10 acts who made it through Thursday's second semi-final.
Australia's Sheldon Riley clinched a place but Ireland's Brooke Scullion misses out. Her performance of pop break-up track That’s Rich did not make the cut.
Of the 18 countries taking part, just 10 were allowed through. Viewers commented on the high standard of this semi-final, saying it was "much better" than Tuesday's first semi-final.

"Today's Eurovision compared to Tuesday though… why’d they put all the good ones in one semifinal? tweeted viewer BBartusiak. Karl Seed wrote: "I’m going to say it; for song quality, tonight is the greatest semi-final ever! It’s scary."
"After the ‘meh’ semi-final on Tuesday I’m pleased #Eurovision has stepped up tonight. Much better," wrote Adam Crampsie.
While the UK wasn't involved tonight - thanks to an automatic final place - a group who met in Leeds were among those taking part. We Are Domi were students at Leeds College of Music before living in London and moving to the Czech Republic. They were among the first acts confirmed for the final after voting ended on Thursday.
We also heard from UK entry Sam Ryder. Speaking to Ryan Clark Neal and Scott Mills on BBC Three, Sam thanked fans for support ahead of Saturday's final.
"I feel the enthusiasm, I feel the positivity and I appreciate it. Me and the whole team do," said the Essex singer.
