During, or preferably just before the flare, apply sufficient downwind rudder to align the aircraft nose with the centreline simultaneously applying into wind aileron (that's opposite aileron to rudder) to prevent the wing from being lifted and to give precise directional control; continue holding off normally making sure the throttle is fully closed for a smooth and precise touchdown on the centreline... Simples!
