Azerbaijan qualified despite 0 points from televoters, Cyprus becomes jury victim

Azerbaijan has qualified for the Grand Final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2022 despite getting only 0 points from televoters. This has become clear from the split results of the Eurovision Song Contest Semi Final 2. Nadir Rustamli finished 6th in the jury vote with 96 points, saving him from non qualification. Cyprus became the victim of this.

Singer Andromecha finished 9th in the televote. However, juries put her in last place, and favored Azerbaijan. Meanwhile Cornelia Jakobs from Sweden won the semi final by getting the most points from both televoters and juries. Australia was second thanks to a massive jury vote, while Serbia finished third after winning the televote.
