What went well

Touched down at -89 fpm — a soft arrival
0.89 G at touchdown — inside band
Airborne in 388 m — 16 % of the runway

What held you back

Departure Roll — Runway alignment max 34.84 m at 7 %, Takeoff Bounce at 60 %, −5.94 points
Departure Climb 1 — Heading variation -3.0 ° at 67 %, bank angle up to 14.3 ° at 68 %, −2.77 points
Arrival Landing — Landing and flare profile at 0 %, Threshold speed was well above target at 135 kn. at 82 %, −2.39 points

Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.
