The Eurovision Song Contest this year ended with the victory of the representative of Israel. Singer Netta performed the song "Toy". The performance was quite effective, but the composition was severely criticized.

According to the voting results, the singer Netta Barzilai scored 529 points in total. “I don't think I need to say much after what happened today, after the choice that the majority made - they chose me. And that's the greatest thing that happens to people, is to choose something different. And I am proud and honored to bring this wonderful event to Israel,”said the lucky winner.

However, many considered the girl's performance not deserving of victory. In the comments to Netta's video on Youtube, there are also many comments that the composition of the Israeli artist is a "bad copy" of the hit Seven nation army by The White Stripes.

By the way, Yulia Samoilova hastened to congratulate the winner on social networks: “Netta! Well done! Congratulations on winning Eurovision! She is yours by right! I'm happy! Honestly!.

The second place was taken with the song Fuego by Eleni Fureira representing Cyprus.

The third was the Austrian Cesar Sampson with the composition Nobody But You.
