She also posted another video where she slowly pans around the stadium showing all the bright lights and fans cheering as they prepare to watch France and South Africa play.

The Welsh Presenter wrote: “Sometimes you have to pinch yourself that this is ‘work’. Tonight was one of those. France v South Africa in Marseille was epic.”

She continued: “Both sets of players gave everything and provided top class sporting entertainment in a stadium which is up there with the very best.”

“If you have a chance to go to a RWC match in 2023 in Marseille you will not be disappointed,” she added.

Gabby also took to her stories during the event where she posted a photo showing the lights glistening from the Stade Velodrome stands, she captioned the photo “It’s like broadcasting from a nightclub.”

France went on to win 30-26, during the event which Logan described as “epic,” she also praised the players from both teams for providing top class sporting entertainment, in one of the very best stadiums.
