An estimated audience of 200 million people watched the Eurovision 2018 final in Lisbon, Portugal on Saturday night.
Israel’s Netta won the annual song contest with 520 points while the UK’s entry, which was briefly interrupted by a stage invader, finished third from bottom with just 48 points.
These were the best of football’s Eurovision jokes from this year:
The United Kingdom are currently bottom with zero points but I reckon if we get Roy Hodgson in now then we could get a comfortable midtable finish. pic.twitter.com/eV7RJ2C053

Smart play by the UK – avoid having to actually organise Brexit by finishing in the #Eurovision bottom 3 and getting relegated from Europe instead.
