So you're saying that someone stole your phone before you finished logging into your Google account on your new phone?
Did you go to your account on a computer browser to repair that Google account? You should be able to change and verify your credentials on the computer and then use those to log into your account on the phone.

Just to add, if you don't actually have your own computer/laptop available there should be publicly available, online PCs at a local library. Lots of local community colleges and a number of non-profit community centers will have open computer facilities too.
And don't forget to de-link that stolen phone from your Google account:
