The Egypt holding midfielder, who got back in action after recuperating from a cruciate ligament tear, scored once in Thursday's match to help Ismaili reach the next round.

Abd-Rabou is convinced he will regain his top form in the near future, provided that he plays regularly in the next few weeks.

"I'm happy with the performance I put in against Kafr Al-Sheikh, especially that I netted a goal and helped Ismaili win the match," he told FilGoal.com.

"I'm regaining my form but I need to take part in more matches to be at my best again."
