In case they had an issue with the brakes they actually did pretty good.
At the end of the landing roll the deceleration was less than what you would expect with 3000PSI on the brakes, even on a slightly wet runway.

Did you see the Video on AvHerald showing the touch down area?

Even by the standards often seen here, OP's post staggers me by its rudeness. If you replace US with gender, race or religion it would be illegal in much of the western world. Why have we descended so low?

Its obvious whats happened here; and clearly a European problem.
The (alleged) US Pilots performed a textbook landing.
Your Europen Runway is obviously in the wrong place.
Please, move it 2000' in the direction of landing and update via NOTAM.

A US/European Pilot
