Easy, they were training. Practising go arounds - they have to be practised you know, both in the sim and in the air.
Hope this helps.
I doubt it was training. Cash strapped airliners don't take their desperately needed assets out of revenue service to do go arounds in a congested airport like MSP. That's what simulators are for.
In MSP, it could have been anything from the approach not stabilized, a fouled runway, FOD from a birdstrike, ECAM failure, aircraft not clearing the runway (likely, as tight as the controllers like to bring planes into MSP), or any number of things that caused either the PIC or the controller to call for a go-around.

What about base training - it could have been that. . . could it not. . ? But, it was two go arounds.
