(Reuters) - England Women manager Sarina Wiegman guided the Netherlands to European Championship success on home soil in 2017 but said replicating that feat in her new role would be a much harder task.

Wiegman, who also led the Netherlands to the 2019 World Cup final, was named Phil Neville's successor last year but was allowed to remain in charge of the Dutch national team until the Tokyo Olympics.
