The fourth show of the Sanremo Italian Song Festival took place last night.
All the 4 artists competing in the Giovani Category performed their entries, which were selected during the second and third night. Hence a 50/50 deliberation via a special panel of judges and televoting determined the final ranking: Antonio Maggio won the competition with the song Mi servirebbe sapere, while Il Cile won the Best Lyrics Award with the song Le parole non servono più, knocked out from the competition during the first night, and Renzo Rubino won the Critics Award with the song Il postino (Amami uomo).

Italy will announce their 2013 Eurovision representative during the last night of the Sanremo Festival, on Saturday 16 February. It is not clear yet if the singer will be selected from the Giovani Category, as it happened with Raphael Gualazzi in 2011, or from the Big Category, like Nina Zilli last year.
