Only in German so far, but some interesting graphs of the stick inputs and resulting roll in the addendum.

They were using both sticks before touchdown simultaneously. He was countering her, whenever she rolled the plane to the left.

Seconds before touchdown she commanded roll to the left, left spoiler was deployed, then she also kicked in the rudder fully to the left...

Also noteworthy: Lufthansa's internal recommended A320 max. crosswind component for manual landing is 30 kt, 3 kt less than Airbus demonstrated max. for a not contaminated runway...

The actual wind (2min. average) at the time of incident was 33 kt from 300.
