INNER JOIN and multi-row data in SQL

I am trying to make a report with different data from my WordPress tables. I would like to know which referencing has made how many views and display the phone number there. I already have all the data in my table, but I’m not doing it right for my query.

Here are my (summary) tables and contents.

Table wp_posts
|id |post_title |
|— | — |
|100 |First Post |
|200 |Second Post|

Table wp_postmeta
|meta_id |post_id|meta_key |meta_value |
|— | — | — | — |
|1 |100 |postviews_total |3493 |
|2 |100 |listing_tel |04444444 |
|3 |200 |postviews_total |2525 |
|4 |200 |listing_tel |0555555 |

Desired outcome
|Listing Title|Field |Value|Phone |
|————-|—– |—–|—– |
|First Post |postviews_total|3493 |04444444|
|Second Post |postviews_total|2525 |0555555 |

What can I do? I tried with this query to get my return, but I don’t see how I can get a row added and my SQL query to understand that it’s the same two values.

sql

SELECT wp_posts.post_title AS 'Listing Title',
wp_postmeta.meta_key AS 'Field', 
wp_postmeta.meta_value as 'Value', 
wp_640837_postmeta.meta_value as 'Phone' 
FROM wp_640837_posts 
JOIN wp_postmeta ON wp_posts.ID = wp_postmeta.post_id 
WHERE wp_postmeta.meta_key = 'post_views_count'

>Solution :

try this.
you need to join wp_postmeta table twice.

SELECT wp_posts.post_title AS 'Listing Title', postview.meta_key AS 'Field', postview.meta_value AS 'Value', tel.meta_value AS 'Phone'
FROM wp_640837_posts
    JOIN wp_postmeta AS postview ON wp_640837_posts.ID = postview.post_id AND postview.meta_key = 'postviews_total'
    JOIN wp_postmeta AS tel ON wp_640837_posts.ID = tel.post_id AND tel.meta_key = 'listing_tel'
