#PORTUGAL: Salvador Sobral to represent his country in Kyiv in May

RTP’s Festival da Canção has just finished, and Salvador Sobral has won the grand prize of a two-week trip to Kyiv in May with the song ‘Amar pelos dois’.

After an extensive show, that included a tribute to RTP in its 60th year, Salvador scored the most points from the seven Portugese regional juries. He then scored the second highest score from the public televote. He seemed to be a popular winner, and his sing should go down well in Kyiv.
