EK Boston Engine Trouble

Just saw this on my crackbook feed:

Engine fire extinguished on Emirates flight at Logan runway | Local News - WCVB Home

Appears the flight into Boston had an engine fire after landing, notified by ATC, seems like it was dealt with pretty quickly, no evacuation

It's not that usual to have issues on landing, is it? Most of them happen on take-off or enroute, though it is a long sector I guess it is feasible that issues would arise after constant operation for so long. Good thing it was not half-way... hope the crew get a nice rest now!
