SUMMARIZECOLUMNS and ORDER BY

Hi,
I'm trying to add ORDER BY in the following DAX measure, but how ? I can not get it working. My goal is to organize return so that the largest Poisson value would be the first

Goals[NumOfGoals] is table with goals 0-6
HomeTeamAttack is the expected goal value for the team
At first I used the SUMMARIZE function, but it won't work with the ORDER BY .....

CalculatePoissonCombined =
VAR _table4 =
SUMMARIZECOLUMNS (
Goals[NumOfGoals],
"Poisson",
SUMX (
VALUES ( Goals[NumOfGoals] ),
POISSON.DIST (
Goals[NumOfGoals],
[HomeTeamAttack],
FALSE()
) * 100
)
)

RETURN
SUMX ( _table4, [Poisson] )

Hi @pasit  SUMX is iterator so it provide some values. I guess you need table with output sorted or TOPN like first row for Poisson?
