Eurovision admit screwing up 2019 song contest results forcing leader board changes

AKIPRESS.COM - Eurovision has revealed they used incorrect jury results for the 2019 song contest, causing a change in the leaderboard that sees the UK lose five additional points, Metro reports.
The correction sees Sweden move up to fifth place and Norway down to sixth, while Germany move to the second to last position.
The Eurovision Broadcast Union confirmed the new results in a statement which revealed that ‘due to a human error an incorrect aggregated result was used'.
