Joe plays a soccer tournament with his team. Matches won score 3 points for the winning team and tied matches score 1 point for both teams. Joe and his team won 1 game and drew 3. The first-place team has won 2 games and tied 2. By how many points did the first-place team beat Joe's team? Give me reasons, before answering the question

For 1 match won, Joe's team scored 1 * 3 = 3 points. For 3 tied games, Joe's team scored 3 * 1 = 3 points. In total, Joe's team scored 3 + 3 = 6 points. For 2 games won, the first - place team scored 2 * 3 = 6 points. For 2 tied games, the first - place team scored 2 * 1 = 2 points. In total, the first - place team scored 6 + 2 = 8 points. The first - place team outscored Joe's team by 8 - 6 = 2 points. So the final answer is 2.
