Slow the descent speed
Below 10,000 ft you are typically limited to 250 kt indicated (a US rule that much of the world mirrors in some form, though not universally). This forces a deceleration around 10,000 ft whether the profile wants one or not, so plan for it rather than discovering it.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 3,002 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
The 129 m touchdown sits inside the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight in the Airbus A321 began at LEBB Bilbao Airport, where the aircraft taxied from the parking area to the runway in 8 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nm. The departure roll took place on runway 12, with a takeoff distance of 1,294 m (61% of the runway). The liftoff speed was 149 knots. The local weather at the time of departure was 22 °C, with a wind speed of 7 knots coming from 159°, resulting in a 5-knot crosswind and 5-knot headwind.
The enroute climb commenced over Derio (Euskal Autonomia Erkidegoa, Spain), with the aircraft climbing from 1,119 ft asl to 30,852 ft asl, covering a total distance of 84 nm in 18 minutes. The enroute cruise level phase began 1 mile west of Santa Maria del Campo (Castilla y Leon, Spain) and lasted 2 minutes, covering 16 nm. The descent phase started 2 miles east of Cevico Navero (Castilla y Leon, Spain), with the aircraft descending from 31,094 ft asl to 4,967 ft asl over a distance of 103 nm in 23 minutes. Another enroute cruise phase began 2 miles northwest of Perales de Tajuna (Comunidad de Madrid, Spain) and lasted 3 minutes, covering 9 nm.
The landing occurred on runway 32R at LEMD Adolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas Airport, with a runway length of 3,002 m. The height at the threshold was 11 ft agl, and the speed at the threshold was 136 knots. The touchdown point was 129 m from the threshold, with a touchdown speed of 133 knots and a vertical speed indicator (VSI) reading of -258 ft/min. The local weather at the time of landing was 18°C, with no significant wind affecting the landing.
After landing, the aircraft taxied from the runway to the parking area in 2 minutes, covering less than 1 nm. The total flight distance was 221 nm, with a total flight time of 65 minutes. The aircraft consumed 2,879 kg of fuel during the flight.
