Mahmood in Eurovision

Mahmood won the 2019 edition of the Sanremo Song Festival and was awarded the golden ticket to represent Italy at the 2019 Eurovision Song Contest in Tel Aviv. He achieved an honorable 2nd placing with his epic entry ‘ Soldi’ at the Grand Final in Israel, thus giving Italy one of its best results in the competition.

Italy has won the Eurovision Song Contest twice, namely in 1964 and 1990 and has placed 2nd four times ( 1956,1974, 2011 and 2019).
