Array formula in D2:

=IF(MIN(IF((COUNTIF(List1, List1)+COUNTIF(List2, List1))*NOT(COUNTIF($D$1:D1, List1))>1, COUNTIF(List1, "<"&List1)+COUNTIF(List2, "<"&List1), MAX(COUNTIF(List2, "<"&List2)+COUNTIF(List1, "<"&List2)+1)))<MIN(IF((COUNTIF(List2, List2)+COUNTIF(List1, List2))*NOT(COUNTIF($D$1:D1, List2))>1, COUNTIF(List2, "<"&List2)+COUNTIF(List1, "<"&List2), MAX(COUNTIF(List1, "<"&List1)+COUNTIF(List2, "<"&List1)+1))), INDEX(List1, MATCH(SMALL(IF((COUNTIF(List1, List1)+COUNTIF(List2, List1))*NOT(COUNTIF($D$1:D1, List1))>1, COUNTIF(List1, "<"&List1), ""), 1), COUNTIF(List1, "<"&List1), 0)), INDEX(List2, MATCH(SMALL(IF((COUNTIF(List2, List2)+COUNTIF(List1, List2))*NOT(COUNTIF($D$1:D1, List2))>1, COUNTIF(List2, "<"&List2), ""), 1), COUNTIF(List2, "<"&List2), 0))) + CTRL + SHIFT + ENTER

Returns a value or reference of the cell at the intersection of a particular row and column, in a given range

SMALL(array,k) Returns the k-th smallest row number in this data set.

NOT(logical)
Changes FALSE to TRUE or TRUE to FALSE

MATCH(lookup_value;lookup_array; [match_type]
Returns the relative position of an item in an array that matches a specified value

INDEX(array,row_num,[column_num])
Returns a value or reference of the cell at the intersection of a particular row and column, in a given range

COUNTIF(range,criteria)
Counts the number of cells within a range that meet the given condition

MIN(number1,[number2])
Returns the smallest number in a set of values. Ignores logical values and text

MAX(number1,[number2],)
