Telfer's first MLS goal earns Toronto FC a much-needed win

A late goal from Ryan Telfer lifted Toronto FC to a 2-1 win over Orlando City in MLS on Friday.

Without suspended star Sebastian Giovinco and fellow forward Jozy Altidore, reigning MLS Cup champion Toronto claimed a much-needed win at BMO Field.

Cristian Higuita had canceled out Jay Chapman's second-half opener, but the home side found a winner through Telfer three minutes from time.

After Chapman put away a rebound in the 63rd minute, Orlando equalized through Higuita – who struck from 20 yards.

But Telfer was the hero for Greg Vanney's men.
