Football teams \(T_{1}\) and \(T_{2}\) have to play two games against each other. It is assumed that the outcomes of the two games are independent. The probabilities of \(T_{1}\) winning, drawing and losing a game against \(T_{2}\) are \(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{6}\) and \(\frac{1}{3}\), respectively. Each team gets \(3\) points for a win, \(1\) point for a draw and \(0\) point for a loss in a game. Let \(X\) and \(Y\) denote the total points scored by teams \(T_{1}\) and \(T_{2}\), respectively, after two games.
