coincide
Happen at once
Coincide means to occur at the same time or occupy the same space.
Events coincide when they happen together: The conference coincides with my vacation.
Views or opinions coincide when they match or align: Our interests happen to coincide.
The word often suggests chance rather than planning—things that coincide weren't necessarily meant to.
