Before you start chasing "solutions" I recommend caution:

(1) Show that the landing gear were down (not up, not in transit) during the Go Around from decision point to impact with the ground.
That is as yet not determined as a fact of the case one way or the other, though the initial report of "gear collapsed" (?) may be found to have relevance ... or not.
(2) Determine whether or not the engines responded as expected and as required during the Go Around once the decision to Go Around was made.


Looking forward to the findings of the investigation.
