BEN DAVIES never believed Wales' Euro 2024 dream was over.<\/p>\n

Against all the odds, the Dragons lie two wins away from automatic qualification for Germany next summer, starting in Armenia on Saturday.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

Wales suffered a shock 4-2 home Group\u00a0D defeat to the same opposition in June as well as away to Turkey.<\/p>\n

And chief executive Noel Mooney planned to review boss Robert Page's position as manager if they didn't finish in the top two.<\/p>\n

But last month's superb 2-1 victory over Croatia galvanised the Welsh and put them into second place above the World Cup semi-finalists on a better head-to-head.<\/p>\n

Now success for Page's men in Yerevan followed by another win against already-qualified Turkey in Cardiff next Tuesday would book a fourth major tournament finals spot in five attempts.<\/p>\n

Tottenham defender Davies, stand-in skipper for the injured Aaron Ramsey, said: "We never stopped believing in this group. It was disappointing to lose at home and a real\u00a0wake-up call. <\/p>\n

"If you switch off and\u00a0aren't at your best, you get punished. We won't be making that mistake again.<\/p>\n

"We've had our backs against the wall and we've given ourselves a chance. It's quite clear the second game doesn't matter if the first one doesn't go our way. <\/p>\n

"It's full focus on Armenia. If we don't get the result then the Turkey one is irrelevant.<\/p>\n

"We can get a result against anyone – we've shown that. It's another huge chance we've got.\u00a0<\/p>\n

"Growing up it was a dream of Welsh football to be going to these major tournaments. That dream still exists. Once you qualify, it gives people the chance to dream.\u00a0<\/p>\n

"We've come into every camp with the focus of getting to these major tournaments with the belief we can do it. <\/p>\n

"We don't want to sit on the success and say: 'OK, we've been there and had a nice time'. <\/p>\n

"We've had a great run so far, but once you get a taste of it you want to do it again. That's exactly where we are as a group this time."<\/p>\n

Davies, 30, delivered a rousing 'huddle' speech following the Croatia triumph inspired by two-goal hero Harry Wilson.<\/p>\n

Evoking the words of Dafydd Iwan\u2019s Yma O Hyd – the 1980s folk protest song which has been adopted by Wales' Red Wall as an anthem – Davies declared his team-mates must never give up.<\/p>\n

Davies, who is set to win his 83rd cap, added: "It was just a case of showing the reason why we're here. <\/p>\n

"People doubted us again but we're still standing. <\/p>\n

"We're standing up against the challenges and here we are with two games to go still in the fight."<\/p>\n

Wales reached Euro 2020 under previous boss Ryan Giggs by winning their final two matches, away to Azerbaijan and then at home to Hungary, in November 2019.<\/p>\n

In the post-Gareth Bale era, Davies – one of four survivors along with Ramsey and keepers Danny Ward and Wayne Hennessey from the Euro 2016 squad which reached the semi-finals – said: "There are similarities from the last time we qualified. <\/p>\n
