UEFA 2020: DAY 12

Today, two matches will be held again in the European Soccer Championship. We start with the match between Scotland and Croatia. Scotland once sent Rikki, Croatia sent Roko. Both had something on their clothes: Rikki a touch of Scottish clothing, Roko a pair of wings. Rikki sang about seing a UFO, Roko about his dream.

Czech Republic will play agains England. Hip hop and rap in Eurovision, it is seen very seldom. In 2018, Czech Republic added a little bit of these styles to the song “Lie to me”, sung by Mikolas Josef. In 1995, a hip hop group from London represented the United Kingdom: Love City Groove, with the song with the same name.

Dutch broadcaster delays decision on participation

The Dutch broadcaster AVROTROS has been allowed to delay their decision about participating in next year’s Eurovision Song Contest. The European Broadcasting Union (EBU), which organizes Eurovision, has given them until at least November 1 to decide. AVROTROS explained that a meeting with the EBU’s leadership has started a positive conversation. To give this conversation a chance, they asked for more time to decide if they will participate. The EBU agreed to this delay, and AVROTROS is thankful for it. The broadcaster started questioning their participation after the EBU disqualified Dutch artist Joost Klein from this year’s Eurovision final in Malmö, Sweden. Klein had an argument with a camerawoman, which led to his disqualification. AVROTROS disagreed with the EBU’s decision. Recently, Swedish authorities closed the case, saying there wasn’t enough evidence. Next year’s Eurovision will take place in May in Basel, Switzerland. The EBU hopes that the Netherlands will take part and plans to announce the list of participating countries by the end of the year. Share
