RYAN Giggs reckons that the Mark Hughes' Wales revolution has given the players the belief they can live with the best.

Years of gloom since Wales failed narrowly to reach the World Cup Finals of 1994, have been replaced by a team which has strung together six unbeaten games - their best run in 15 years - and got their Euro 2004 campaign off to a glorious start.

Saturday's 2-0 win in the opening group nine match in Finland suggests that the good times could be rolling again for the Welsh.

And the Manchester United star, with a glittering club career and so far precious little to get excited about for his country, can at last see the personal burden of expectation lifting.

Giggs, after his 37th international, said: ``The players we have got and the belief we now have mean that a draw in our eyes isn't good enough any more.
