The news means that it was curtains for Latvia, Poland, Georgia, Estonia, Denmark, Austria and the Czech Republic.

The lineup for the final is now complete, with tonight's 10 qualifiers joining the 10 qualifiers from Tuesday's first semi-final, as well as the hosts the Netherlands and the so-called 'Big Five' countries of France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK.
