How to Combine Events with matching data

Hi, I have a union'ed search where I am wanting to link different events based on fields that have matching values.
My search looks like this:
| union
[search message=*
| spath Field1
| spath Field2]
[search city=*
| spath FieldA 
| spath FieldB]
| table Field1 Field2 FieldA FieldB

My current output looks like this:

Field1Field2FieldAFieldB
JohnBlue  
  BlueOhio
  YellowWyoming

 

However I need a way to link Field1 to FieldB if Field2=FieldA, where the output would look something like this: 

Field1Field2FieldAFieldB
JohnBlueBlueOhio
  YellowWyoming


If there is a way to do something like this, please let me know, even if I need to create new fields. The excess FieldA and FieldB are unimportant if there is not a matching Field2. 

please help, please
