After the first four-way tie in 1969 (Madrid), several methods (over time) have been introduced to to break ties.

https://eurovision.tv/story/milestone-moments-1969-the-four-way-tie The methods must have been moderately successful because it wasn't until 1991 that Sweden needed a countback to win.

The rules have been slightly modified over the years since then, but...

As of 2016, [...] If there is still a tie, the final order shall be decided by the vote of the youngest member of the National Jury.
