00:00 Onto the lady behind it all, Serena Weigman will be forever remembered in English football
00:06 history after becoming the first coach to lead the Lionesses to a major title when England
00:12 won the UEFA Euro 2022 on home soil. Not only was it historic for the Lionesses but also
00:18 for Weigman herself as she became the first coach to win back-to-back tournaments, having
00:23 led her native Netherlands to the Euro 2017 title five years earlier. Her success with
00:30 the Netherlands was unrivalled. She successfully led her home nation to the UEFA Women's Euro
00:36 victory in 2017 and was duly named the best FIFA Women's coach in the same year before
00:42 guiding them to the final of the FIFA Women's World Cup in 2019. She has now become the
00:48 only ever women's manager to lead two nations to a World Cup final, so going into the final,
00:53 she has proved Mrs Reliable before and will be doing all she can to continue her success
00:59 and add a star above the Lionesses' badge.
