Roy van der Merwe of ESC Covers was able to actually watch the show. Due to load shedding in his suburb, from 10 pm to 2.30 am this morning, he could not watch it at home but one of his neighbours, who has an inverter, invited him to come to her place to connect his laptop and WIFI to the inverter and so he was able to watch the entire show.

The top 5 are

SWEDEN (winning the jury vote)

FINLAND (winning the tele vote)

ISRAEL

ITALY

NORWAY (doing bad in jury vote it scored well in tele vote)

ESC COVERS predicted a Sweden-Finland-Norway-Italy top 4 so we are very close.

We did predict GERMANY to end last, at least not with zero points and we also predicted SERBIA to come 3rd last. We have now predicted last place correct for several years in a row. Our second last place we gave to  SPAIN but another big 5 country UK got it in the  end.

We also correctly predicted CROATIA will do well in tele voting and also getting position 25 in the running almost. Almost all their points came from tele voting.

So Sweden is now also with 7 victories like Ireland.
