What held you back

Arrival Rollout — Landing distance 1,294 m at 43 %, Runway alignment max 14.83 m at 83 %, −2.27 points
Arrival Final 2 — Approach angle 4.9 ° at 10 %, bank angle up to 6.7 ° at 90 %, −1.94 points
Arrival Final 1 — Approach angle 3.5 ° at 28 %, bank angle up to 7.5 ° at 89 %, −1.11 points

Top opportunity

Hold the approach angle

Arrival Final 2

Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.
