Union table without inheriting sum

Hi.
I need help please.
Need to join 2 tables in DAX, so code goes like this:

FirstTable = ADDCOLUMNS(
"Team","Team1",
"Sales", sum(InitialTable[Sales],
"Revenue", sum(InitialTable[Revenue])

SecondTable = ADDCOLUMNS(
"Team","Team1",
"Sales", 100,
"Revenue", 20)

return union(FirstTable,SecondTable)


So for example First table is:
Sales Revenue
Team1 500 300

But then it is overwrites SecondTable inputs and I get at the end:
           Sales Revenue
Team1 500 300
Team2 500 300

It supposed to be:

            Sales Revenue
Team1 500 300
Team2 100 20

Somehow measures from FirstTable overwrite values from SecondTable.

I need not to mix them.

What I am doing wrong?

Thank you

HI @Yaro 
Please try

=
VAR T1 =
    ROW (
        "Team", "Team1",
        "Sales", SUM ( InitialTable[Sales] ),
        "Revenue", SUM ( InitialTable[Revenue] )
    )
VAR T2 =
    ROW ( "Team", "Team1", "Sales", 100, "Revenue", 20 )
RETURN
    UNION ( T1, T2 )

hi @Tameer
thank you for your reply
Row will return only one row of data?
The example I have given is just to showcase the situation
in fact I need to group those tables by many teams

@Yaro 

group them based on what?

I think the answer is to Union tables on row level and then summarize the final output

hi @Yaro 

UNION is not supposed to overwrite values. Could you paste some sample data?

hi @FreemanZ 

I have InitialTable for Team1 which looks like this:

MemberSalesRevenue
Member1300200
Member2200100


So I write code summarizing that table.
var FirstTable=ADDCOLUMN ("Team","Team1","Sales",sum(InitialTable[Sales]),sum(InitialTable[Revenue]))
then I want to add Team2 just with dummy numbers
var SecondTable={("Team2",0,0)}

return union(FirstTable,SecondTable) gives me that result

TeamSalesRevenue
Team1500300
Team2500300


Thank you.
