A320 how to save this landing

friends, I was shooting a VOR approach today with 8 kts tailwind. things were fine upto 50ft, when suddenly wind died to zero. airplane started dropping, I pull the stick little up to increase the lift but controls were sluggish and didn't respond. just a second before touchdown airplane pitched up (may be the late response) and I cut the throttle. I had a 1.72g landing.
What could be ideal technique to save or rather reduce the 'damage' on this landing?
