A last gap goal by Giorgos Tzavelas allowed Greece to escape with 1-1 draw against Bosnia and Herzegovina in a World Cup qualifier on Sunday, while Group H leader Belgium crushed Estonia 8-1.
Belgium remains perfect with 12 points from four games, and has scored 21 goals with only one conceded.
Dries Mertens scored in each half against Estonia, while Romelu Lukaku snatched two late goals to add to the visitors' misery.
Second-placed Greece trails Belgium by two points after being held at home. Tzavelas scored with a blistering shot outside the area in the fifth minute of injury time after Bosnia's defence only half-cleared a long throw-in by Sokratis Papastathopoulos.
Bosnia, which dominated most of the game in Piraeus, had taken the lead in the 33rd after Miralem Pjanic's free-kick bounced off the right post and then goalkeeper Orestis Karnezis' back before finding the net.
Both teams ended the game with 10 men, with Kyriakos Papadopoulos getting a red card for striking Edin Dzeko — in his attempts to wrestle the ball away — and Dzeko getting a second yellow card.
Cyprus beat Gibraltar 3-1 in the group's other game.
