I thought the same, screamed out "ouch that doesn't look good!" right before the catch.

The last part of the live stream they showed footage from a different angle and there it didn't look too bad though! For sure controlled.

Scott Manley put out a tweet that they went down towards a non-tower position until they were at three engine controlled burn, and only then did the side shift.

Timestamp of the different angle?

Thanks! The parking angle, speed and tolerance still looks impressive from this angle, too.
