Two wallets with the same address

The probabilty of two different wallets to have the same address is not null.
When you create a wallet you have a pair of keys public and private, let's say KeyPub & KepPriv

If two people create two pairs:
  • KeyPub1 & KepPriv1
  • KeyPub2 & KepPriv2

and KeyPub1 = KeyPub2, and someone sends crypto to KeyPub1, will both wallet owners have access to the transfered amount?

Where am I wrong?
