Question last minute change of course

As a passenger I noticed a last minute change of course of the 737-400 I was on flying to AMS (Schiphol). Actually it was a matter of 10/15 seconds before touch down at an altitude of max 150 ft. The a/c made a banking of 25/30 degrees, like it changed it direction from 27/60 to 90. May be the fact that our gate was at the C Pier made a difference?

I'm used to this on the old Kai Tak Apt, but never experienced this at AMS.

Does this make sense to ya’ll?

Thanks
