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

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

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

Maybe all these lessons are starting to dull my native English skills, but isn't "many players BECAME hurt during the match" a correct translation?
