Slow down before tight turns
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken.

Two stabilised approach gates, each with six checks at 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 1,557 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,557 m of the 2,545 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 478 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.

The Airbus A350-1000 conducted the final approach to runway 22 at EDDC Dresden Airport from the north-east, maintaining a heading of 221.0° at 4 nm and 1,313 ft agl. Local weather was 21 °C with a wind of 2 kt from 129°, providing a 2 kt cross-wind component and no head-wind.
Threshold height was reported as good and the threshold speed was good at 138 kt.
Touchdown occurred 62 m beyond the designated touchdown zone; the touchdown speed was 133 kt, noted as a little fast, while the vertical rate was excellent at minus 79 fpm and runway touchdown alignment was perfect.
The aircraft used a total landing distance of 1,476 m, representing 58 % of the 2,542 m runway, and rollout alignment was perfect.
Reduce the touchdown speed slightly to bring it closer to the target and aim to achieve touchdown within the touchdown zone to eliminate the 62 m overshoot.
