HAMILTON — Ryan Telfer wasted little time making history Saturday, scoring the first goal in Canadian Premier League.

The York 9 FC midfielder beat Forge FC goalkeeper Triston Henry in the third minute with a right-footed shot from the edge of the penalty box after captain Manny Aparicio's perfect through ball.

Telfer is on loan from Toronto FC of Major League Soccer.

The CPL opener was at Tim Hortons Field.
