Eurovision entrant Mae Muller has issued a statement in response to a disappointing result in last night’s (May 13) finale, which saw the UK finish second from last.Sweden’s Loreen was crowned the overall winner in the final, after earning a score of 583 points. Sweden were the bookies favourite to win ahead of the final in Liverpool, with Loreen’s song ‘Tattoo’ having odds of 4/9 on bet365 to win on the day of the grand finale.The win made Eurovision history, with Loreen becoming the first woman to win the competition twice, following her victory in 2012 with the track ‘Euphoria’.After the jury votes, Sweden stood in first place at 340 points.
Once combined with the public vote, this increased at 583. Finland and Israel came in second and third place respectively.The UK, however, didn’t fare as well.
Muller was the final act to perform on the evening and while her performance was well-received in the venue, it failed to inspire voters of either the jury or audience, and subsequently saw Muller finish in 25th place. This was second-to-last place with a score of 24 points.Responding to the result, Muller said: “I just want to say thank you x I know I joke a lot but we really put our all into the last few months,” she wrote on Twitter last night.“Not the result we hoped for but so proud of everyone & what we achieved on this journey.
Congrats to all the countries, I’ll never forget this journey and I love you all.”i just want to say thank u x i know i joke a lot but we really put our all into the last few months, not the result we hoped for but so proud of everyone & what we achieved on this journey.
