Muharemović was heavily involved in Bosnia and Herzegovina's build-up play, completing 69 passes, more than any other player on the pitch, from 88 touches.
He also made 28 carriesfor a combined distance of 246 metres, while defensively he recorded six clearancesand two recoveries.
The 23-year-old also registered one key passand was involved in one of Bosnia and Herzegovina's late opportunities.
With the visitors looking for a breakthrough, Muharemović helped create an opening for Ermin Mahmić, who struck from outside the box, but his effort sailed over the crossbar.
Neither side could find a decisive moment in the remaining stages, with the points shared in the opening fixture of the Nations League campaign.
Bosnia and Herzegovina will now turn their attention to their next fixture, when they travel to face Romania on Monday 28 September.
