Thank you United States! No points for any of the top 3 in that voting sequence and 12-points for Guyana allows them to close the gap and Eddy Grant's hopes of victory remain alive. We stay in North America now as we travel to Mexico for the votes of the Mexican jury. Good afternoon Mexico! Can you please reveal your votes?

Goodnight Egypt! Remarkably that is Sweden's first 12 points of the contest and keeps them in touch. They move in to joint second alongside Italy on 147 points. However, despite not scoring in that round, the United Kingdom remain 22 points ahead on 169 points. Just 10 juries left to cast their votes but still plenty of time for things to change. We move now to the 25th jury of the day, the jury from Lithuania. Good evening Lithuania, it's your turn to deliver your votes!

I have added the format for deciding ties for position within the group stage to the rules. It will mostly follow the same tie-break criteria as those used in FIFA WC. I still have to add the "best 3rd place" rules to that post but we have already established what the rule is on thread at least.

The Czech jury decided to aim for the Czechoslovak Trophy
