Two goals from substitute Zlatan Muslimovi? helped Bosnia-Herzegovina secure a 4-1 victory over Armenia.

First goal
The hosts were always in control against the bottom team in FIFA World Cup qualifying Group 5 and scored two goals either side of the break. Captain Emir Spahi? and Edin Džeko struck in the first half before Muslimovi? got his pair in the second. Armenia did at least record their first goal of the campaign thanks to Vahagin Minasyan's 85th-minute effort.

Constant pressure 
Miroslav Blaževi?'s men had ten corners in the opening period and it was from the final one that they took the lead – Spahi? meeting Zvjedan Misimovi?'s delivery to score from close range after 31 minutes. It was 2-0 eight minutes later after Samir Muratovi? stole the ball off Artur Yedikaryan and crossed for Džeko whose shot was too powerful for Roman Berezovski in the visitors' goal to save.

Quick impact
Blaževi? brought on Muslimovi? for the second half and the PAOK FC forward took only eleven minutes to make an impact, collecting Misimovi?'s pass to give his team a three-goal cushion. Armenia gained some consolation five minutes before the end, but there was still time for Muslimovi? to add gloss to the scoreline on 89 minutes.
