They had to keep the airspeed very high to prevent a stall on landing, so the angle of decent was probably very steep at the final stage. No go around.

Basically, they probably dove, flared and tried to end up in the right place of the runway at the right speed and height. Pobably popped the remaining tires skidding to a stop.
