The most important thing is the players must be psychologically sound."Van der Plyum knows that his side faces a big challenge but he says the game against Ahly could potentially be a key moment in their campaign."It is the biggest and decisive game. The outcome will be critical in determining how far we can go in the competition."We have to go all out.
