Wales head coach Craig Bellamy has said a recent win over Norway helped lift the mood around the squad after a difficult stretch, according to a report by BBC Sport.
Bellamy said he had been through a period he described as really difficult, pointing to criticism he had faced during Wales' winless run.
The report did not provide further detail on the scoreline or context of the Norway match, though it framed the win as a turning point after an extended period of poor results for the national team.
Bellamy has faced scrutiny over his management of the Wales squad during the winless run, with the victory over Norway offering some relief from that pressure, the report said.
