Who replaced the disciple Judas Iscariot?

From the Acts 1:15-17, 20-26

...Therefore we must choose someone from among those who were with us during all the time that the Lord Jesus move about with us, beginning with John's baptism until the day when Jesus was taken away from us. One of these has to become, with us, a witness to his resurrection. "Then they proposed two: Joseph, called Barsabbas, also known as Justus, and Matthias. They prayed: "You know, Lord, what is in the hearts of all. Show us, therefore, which of the two you have chosen to replace Judas in this apostolic ministry".

Then they drew lots between the two and the choice fell on Matthias who was added to the eleven.
