Netta from Israel wins Eurovision song contest 2018

Israel's Netta has won the Eurovision Song Contest for her quirky dance song Toy - complete with its trademark chicken dance.

She had been an early favourite, but the vote went down to the wire with Cyprus finishing in second place. Netta thanked juries and the public for "choosing different" as she lifted the glass microphone trophy.

Netta - full name Netta Barzilai - picked up a total of 529 points to take the title.

This years final was held in Lisbon, Portugal, with the 2019 contest now set to take place in Israel. The last time Israel won Eurovision was 20 years ago when Dana International was victorious with Diva.
