"Mange spillere ble skadet under kampen."

Translation: Many players got hurt in the match.

Why should "under" be used here instead of "i"?

[Luke_5.1991]

You use "under" or "i løpet av" to mean "during" before a noun. Before a verbal clause, you use "mens."

[Ingebj]

Here "under" would mean "during". Does that make sense?

[MTCarey]

Handball again?

[Geoffrey_Carlton]

I just realized that 'kamp' is probably a cognate with "competition."
