Greece and Bosnia-Herzegovina ended goalless after a closely contested friendly encounter in Sarajevo on Wednesday.
Despite an entertaining first half, chances were at a premium as both teams struggled to build a head of steam for the business end of the Euro 2012 qualifying campaign which continues next month.
Following a confident start from Bosnia, the hosts could have gone in front after 12 minutes when Sejad Salihovic's free-kick was saved by Michalis Sifakis.
The visitors then had their keeper to thank again from the resulting corner as Sifakis blocked Edin Dzeko's close range effort.
Dzeko was proving the focal point for all of Bosnia's attacking play in the first half and the striker went close in the 22nd minute, flashing a snapshot just wide of the right post after some good build-up play.
But Greece looked dangerous on the break and Giorgios Samaras passed up an excellent chance to make it 1-0.
The striker was played through on goal by Vasilis Torosidis but he sent his chipped shot high over the bar.
