Wales' Ben Davies

Wales and Tottenham defender Ben Davies says there are “exciting times” ahead fo the country under Craig Bellamy.

The new head coach has picked up four points from his first two matches in charge, including a 2-1 win in the Nations League against Montenegro on Monday.

Davies captained the side out in the pouring rain following a 0-0 draw with Turkey a few days earlier.

But after picking up just one point in their first match, it was all three away from home thanks to goals from Kieffer Moore and Harry Wilson inside the first three minutes.

Speaking on the match, he said: “It’s a great start and I think we can really kick on as a team.

“We’ve worked hard; after that one week of working together we saw the results that we had in the performance. It’s very exciting times.

He [Bellamy] was very happy.

“I think in games like that it becomes a bit more of a fight than about the quality that we are capable of.

“That’s what we did tonight; we fought, we gave our all. It was pretty tough conditions but sometimes you get just as much enjoyment out of getting through those.

“You could see by the way we started we came out with loads of energy, we even tried to play some football in a similar way to what we did the other day, but I think we soon realised the conditions weren’t really there for that and we had to adapt and that’s what we did.”
