Why Serbia isn't listed first as they have +7 in front of Italy?

Because this is UEFA's competition. In UEFA primary criteria is Head-to-head (not goal difference).
4 teams (ITA, SRB, IRL, SVN) 9 points each. There were 2 matches between this teams. ITA – SVN 1–0 and SVN – ITA 0–3.
ITA 6 points, GD +4 → 1st place.
SRB 0 points, GD 0, overall GD +12 → 2nd place
IRL 0 points, GD 0, overall GD +5 → 3rd place
SVN 0 points, GD –4 → 4th place.
