At the end of a particularly hectic edition due to the controversy surrounding Israel’s participation, it was Switzerland that won the Eurovision final this Saturday, May 11 in Malmö. The singer Nemo won this 2024 edition with the song The code. France, represented by Slimane and his title My lovehe finished in fourth place in the ranking.
This victory for Nemo, obtained with 591 points, votes from the juries and the public combined, is not a surprise. Before this grand final, he was among the bookmakers’ favorites. Slimane’s final ranking is also not unexpected, as in recent days she has been among the top five artists favored by bettors.
Croatia and Ukraine complete the podium
Following the exclusion of Joost Klein, representative of the Netherlands, earlier in the day, 25 countries were competing for the final of this 68th edition of the competition. Croatia, with singer Baby Lasagna, came in second place and Ukraine finished last on the podium.
Nemo succeeds Sweden’s Loreen, who won last year with the song Tattoo. Therefore, as tradition dictates, Switzerland will host the next edition of the contest.
