Ricardo is on a distinguished road
A good approach starts at the base curve. It seems he did not finish base curve at a proper speed, altitude and runway alignment (he was way left of the runway)
Combined with turbulence, he became destabilized. After that he was fighting the plane, but dangerously low.
In my view he was afraid of engine failure on go around, thats why he insisted on landing.
But seems the best course of action would have been to gradually apply power, regain control, and go around.
